TACTICALLY NEW BOYS' DOR- 
MITORY GREETS YOUNG MEN 
ON THEIR RETURN 



During the summer vacation the Old 
Selinsgrove Hall was completely re- 
modeled. It was a treat to the eyes of 
the students when they returned to 
see the extensive alterations which 
had been made. It is practically a 
new building. 

The exterior plan of the building 
has not been changed. So many fond 
memories are clustered around the 
grand old building that it was not 
thought advisable to alter the general 
appearance. But on the inside the 
change is complete. 

Instead of having the halls running 
the length of the building as formerly 
there is now a partition in the middle 
which divides the structure into two 
separate sections. The three floors 
are connected by stairways so that 
there are six sections to the building 
with apartments for eight persons in 
each section. The rooms are arrang- 
ed in suites of two rooms each. The 
sleeping apartment is separated from 
study room and all the rooms are fit- 
ted up in first class shape. The Y. M. 
C. A. stil' occupies their rooms on the 
first floor. In every way the building 
is up to date and fills a long felt need. 
In comparison to the condition the old 
dorm was formerly in it is now a 
palace. 

All these improvements will have a 
good influence on the students. They 
can take pride in their surroundings 
and strive to l<eep them attractive. 
In the midst of such desirable sur- 
roundings the student cannot help but 
do beter work. Environment is a 
great factor in a person's life and 
without doubt one can look for the stu- 
dents to be better students than ever 
before. 



AiUAL RECEPTION 
HELO LA81 




Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. ENTER- 
TAIN NEW STUDENTS — DR. 
AIKENS SPEAKS 



"If the cap fits wear It." 



As a welcome to the new students 
who have entered the institution this 
fall a reception was held in Seibert 
Hall last night by the Y. M. C. A. and 
Y. W. C. A. It is the custom of these 
organizations to hold this every year 
so that the incoming students can be- 
come acquainted. 

A committee of the old members 
met the newcomers at the door and 
made them feel at home. Soon the old 
and nevv men and women were seated 
around in a circle ariti chatting as tho 
they had known each other all their 
lives. The sorrows of homesickness 
were lost and the real character of 
college life and surroundings discover- 
ed. Many a lonesome one was cheered 
and made to feel that he was a part 
of the large family. 

Dr. Aikens in a brief address wel- 
comed the new ones and encouraged 
them to take an active part in the 
work and privileges of these worthy 
organizations. A short program of 
musical and literary numbers was 
rendered by the members after which 
games and amusements of various 
kinds were started. 

After some time spent in jolliflca. 
tion the committee appeared bearing 
large trays loaded with ice cream, 
and cake and as usual the appeal of 
the appetite was stronger than the at- 
traction of entertainment and all ceas- 
ed from their activities to enjoy the 
small tho delicious repast. 

At a late hour the assembly of now 
thoroughly acquainted students re- 
turned to their abodes much happier 
and anxious to take their part in their 
respective organizations.

CLASS OF 

WOODS. INITIAL 
THE YEAR 



19 MAKE MERRY IN ! FORMER PRESIDENT OF SUSQUE- 
EVENT OF HANNA ACCEPTS CALL TO BE- 
COME PASTOR OF TRINITY 



With the gathering shadows of Fri- 
day evening convened also the jolly 
class of 1919 on the beautiful campus 
of dear old Susquehanna. 

Hearty laughter and friendly jests 
were suflicient evidence that the Jun- 
iors were in for a good time. In tows 
or threes they started with Mrs. 
Hobart* and Dean Meyers driving the 
flock, until Fetterolf's woods greeted 
the visitors. 

Pine needles and boughs blazed up 
quickly making the woods light and 
cherry. Led by Pappenfus and male 
members of the class scoured the 
woods for fuel, while those of female 
persuasion made themselves com- 
fortable around the fire. 

Then the fire died down leaving a 
hot bed of glowing embers. The 
custodians produced the marshmel- 
lows which were soon toasting over 
the fire. Some were burnt, some fell 
off and some were just fine. Peanuts 
followed the candy in abundant quan- 
tities. Miss Schoch. was the terror of 
the boys by reason of her sticky hands 
and Shoaf was overflowing with hu- 
mor. 

Everybody knew how to play three 
deep in which they heartily partici- 
pated until breathless they called the 
game. Then again the fire was piled 
high while the ears svere finished and 
songs of Susquehanna echoed among 
the tall trees. When again the fire had 
burned low the illustrious class of '19 
wended its way homeward beneath the 
stars, comparing mentally this reunion 
with that of previous years when ever 
guarding against the Freshmen they 
enjoyed a wiener feed in the same 
woods. This is an event long to be 
pleasantly remembered by the Juniors 
who are now united more closely than 
ever to undertake the work of the 
future.

LOYAL SONS TO SERVE THE COL-

HONOR TO COLLEGE 



PRESIDENT CHAS. T. AIKENS 



SOPHS POST PROCS. 

Wednesday morning, the opening 
day of college, dawned with a beauti- 
fuy radiance of glorious sunlight 
sweeping over tho eastern mountain 
tops only to reveal that the Sophs had 
already been on the job and had post- 
ed their warnings to the Freshmen in 
every conspicious place at and about 
the buildings of old Susquehanna, As 
the day advanced the many Froshiea 
appeared one by one on the campus, 
taking a long drawn out look at the 
lules with which they were doom to 
reverence. Then with sad face and 
drooping countenance they made their 
way onward to brood over their on- 
coming doom if they should fail to 
obey. Thursday morning dawned to 
still further reveal the handiwork of 
the pugnacious Sophs. The numerals 
which the fear stricken Freshmen had 
painted during the night had all been 
maiked out with only a faint trace left 
to tell how dilligently the new ones 
had labored but all in vain. 



SOPHOMORES ORGANIZE 
The class of '20 held a class meet- 
ing last week at which the class was 
organized for this year. The following 
officers were elected: 

President, Wm. Janson; Vice-Presi- 
dent, Evelyn Allison; Treasurer, My- 
ron Cole; Secretary, Russel Auman; 
Financial Secretary, S. Kornman. 



At a meeting held September 16, the 
congregation of Trinity Lutheran 
Church voted unanimously to extend 
to Rev. Jolm Crown Focht, D.D., a call 
to become their pastor. Since July 1, 
when Rev. Dr. Charles Leonard re- 
linquished his work in Trinity to ac- 
cept a call to Williamsport, the local 
pastorate has been supplied by Dr. 
Houtz. 

On Sunday, September 23, the sec- 
retary of the church council read be- 
fore the congregation the letter of Dr. 
Focht, wherein he accepted the call 
agreeing to begin his work the first 
of October. 

Dr. Focht has many friends not only 
in the local congregation but in the en- 
tire community, He is a man of un- 
impeachable character, rich in sym- 
pathy and love for his fellow men and 
ever ready to aid and uplift all who 
come within the scope of his activi- 
ties. Scholarly in his attainments, 
quick and generous in his dealings, he 
has won the respect of all who know 
him. His perceptions are quick and 
clear, his judgment calm and accurate, 
his purposes good and pure beyond all 
question. 

Dr. Focht, the son of Rev. D. H. and 
Susan (Brown) Focht was born in 
Chambersburg on July 20, 1851. After 
a preparatory course at Missionary In- 
stitute he entered Pennsylvania Col- 
lege from which he graduated with 
honor in 1874. For the following 
acedemic year he was proctor of his 
alma mater after which he was ap- 
pointed principal of the Preparatory 
Departmnt of State College. He was 
ordained in 1876 but did not enter the 
ministry until after leaving State 
College. Later he accepted a call to 
the vice-principalship of Missionary 
Institute succeeding to tho principal- 
ship in 1881. After 6 years of faith- 
ful labor he was called to St. John's 
Lutheran church in Lewistown, which 
he served until he accepted a call to 
Barren Hill in 1894. In the year 1899 
he became pastor of the local church 
continuing the pastorate until 1904, 
when he resigned to become President 
of Susquehanna University. After a 
year of splendid administration he re- 
linquished his executive position and 
removed his family to Plantsville, 
Conn., where they have since resided. 

All who had learned to know him 
either in his pa.=itorate or on the cam- 
pus greatly regreted his departure but 
now they iim> n joicc that once more 
he M'ill return lo tiie field of his form- 
er endeavors and spend his declining 
years amid the scenes of past labors. 
The local eotisn'sation is to be sin- 
cerely congratuliitod that they have 
secured a clergyman of such extra- 
ordinary ability and character. 



Susquehanna can well feel proud of 
her sons who have answered the c^U 
of their country and entered the serv- 
ice. The Susquehanna Ambulance 
Unit in camp at Allentown is an hon- 
or to their college. Thirty-six of the 
finest of her students are now in this 
unit. Many more are in other branch- 
es of the service and they are also 
proving to be a great honor to their 
beloved institution. Following is a 
list of those who are encamped at Al- 
lentown awaiting the call to go across 
the waters:

REWARD 
A prominent citizen of town has 
promised a reward to the students 
who painted the sidewalks last Wed- 
nesday evening. To the Freshmen he 
will give a gold headed cane and to 
the Sophomores he has promised a 
pair of boots. The only condition at- 
tached to these presents is that he is 
to have hold of one end of the cane 
and that his foot is to be in one of 
the boots. 



ALLENTOWN PICTURES TONIGHT 

Motion pictures of the camp life of 
the Ambulance Unit.s at Allentown 
will be shown at Masonic Temple this

boys. Admission ten cents. 



"NcTcr burn a candle at both ends.' 



LITERARY SOCIETIES 

Literary Socities will open this 
week. Every student should become 
affiliated with one of these societies. 
Nothing around the institution will bo 
of more value to you In after life 
than the training received in Literary 
Society. Become a member of either 
Philo or Clio, they are both good.

ENROLLMENT 

Many new students are enrolled 
this year. 

Altho the Freshmen class is not as 
large as in former years, they are cer- 
tainly fine men. It is our hope that j 
they may do their bit and help in all 
the departments. The upper classmen 
stand ready and willing to help these 
new men in every way possible. 

If there is anything on which they 
may wish to be enlightened the older 
students will gladly do it. We are 
one large family and we want the be- 
ginners to feel that they are a part of 
it. We all must work together for our 
own benefit and lor our beloved 
college. 



Sound of the pigskin is heard again 
and football is started at Susquehan- 
na. 

In spite of the fact that almost all of 
last year's teams have entered their 
country's service, footl)all will contin- 
ue. None of last year's varsity nun 
have returned and only a few of the 
scrubs have reported, so it will be im- 
possible to play the first three games 
on the schedule. The remaining 
games, however, will be played pro- 
viding the material is forthcomin?;. 
Coach E. R. Wingard will again eo.Tch 
the Orange and Maroon and will be as- 
sisted by Harkins and Middlesworth. 
Both men have played on the eleven 
for several years and will be of great 
help in whipping the squad into form. 
Susquehanna has a good schedule, in- 
cluding several home games, and 
should have a successful season. 

Janson, last year's scrub captain, 
Warner and Bastian, scrubs of last 
year, have reported, while Stuempfle, 
Follmer, Shannon, Schuman, Zechman, 
Rothfus, Faust, and several other new 
men are showing good form. 

Let every man respond to the call of 
his college and do his bit to boost foot- 
ball this year. Whether you have 
played before or not, we want you to 
come out and get in line. Uniforms 
can be secured at the Gymnasium. 
Let every man show his loyalty to 
Susquehanna by reporting for practice 
this week.

MANY UNDER FLAG 

Due to the war and the fact that so 
many of our students have answered 
the call to the colors, the upper clas- 
i>es are somewhat depleted this year. 

This will necessarily cause a great- 
e amount of responsibility to fall on 
1 remainiuR members. May they 
vfa "estly and diligently take up the 
wr' ind carry it thru. 

rX'^'the sake of Susquehanna we 
must not bt any of this work fail or 
slacken. It may require some sacrifi- 
ces on the part of the students to do 
this but we should feel that it is our 
duty to do this for our dear Susque- 
hanna, i'vfter all her welfare is ours 
and in doing these things we are help- 
ing ourselves.

TEETH AS A FACTOR 

IN GENERAL HEALTH 



Little Talks on Health and Hygiene 
by Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State Com- 
missioner of Health 



"He looks one way and pulls an- 
other." 

"Stick to it and do it." 
"Don't put the cart before the 
horse." 

"A leaking tap is a greate waster." 
"Fools set tools for wise men to 
stumble over." 

"A man in passion rides a horse 
that runs away with him." 
"No plow, many weeds." 
"Two dogs fight for a bone and an- 
other runs away with it." 

"Little is gained by lawsuits." 
"He would put his finger in the pie 
so he burnt his nail off." 
"Mind your own business." 
"You can't catch the wind in a net." 
"Like cat like kit." 
"A horse which carries a halter is 
easily cought. 

"An old fox IS shy of a trap." 
"A black hen lays a white egg." 
"One hunch back laughs at another." 
"He has a hole under his nose and 
his money runs into it." 



Good teeth are necessary for health. 
What adds more to the beauty of the 
human face than a mouth full of fine 
teeth? 

The first teeth need great care. 
First, the mother should see that the 
mouth is not overcrowded so that its 
form may be maintained for the sec- 
ond teeth when they come. 

The baby teeth are softer than those 
that come after and therefore acids 
must be scrupulously avoided, particu- 
larly in mouth washes, as they will 
destroy these important teeth wliicb 
should be kept in the mouth as long 
as they are in good condition. 

Your doctor or druggist should be 
able to tell you about the acidity of the 
tooth preparations that are on the 
market. 

It is always a pleasure to learn how 
to do things for one's self; it makes 
you self reliant and at the same time 
stimulates you to seek further knowl- 
edge. 

If you suspect your tooth prepara- 
tion of being acid you can buy a few 
cents worth of litmus paper from your 
druggist, and by dipping a very small 
piece of this into your mixture a red- 
dish tinge will appear on the paper if 
there is any acid present. If acid for- 
bid the use of the preparation. If a 
tooth powder is used it should be well 
shaken up with water before making 
the acid test.

To the new students the Y. M. C. A. 
wishe.s to extend the good hand of fel- 
lowship. We greet you as an organi- 
ation that wishes to make your col- 
lege life homelike. We want to give 
you all that you left behind and some- 
thing more. We want you to feel that 
Susquehanna is a home as well as a 
college. 

Furthermore we want to develop 
your spirit, mind and body. You can- 
not afford to miss the spiritual food 
gained from our meetings because 
you owe it to God and yourself. We al- 
ways procure sterling men as sepak- 
ers; men who have fought life's bat- 
tles and have been victorious, so a 
message coming from such men is just 
the kind we all need. Then we have 
our weekly prayer meeting, and by 
the way they will start next Wednes- 
day evening. Leaders will be appoint- 
ed for each section of the dormintory 
and a meeting will be held In one of 
the rooms. The few minutes you 
spend with the fellow students In wor- 
ship will bring you into a closer rela- 
tionship with them and with God. 

The Y. M. C. A. rooms will bo ready 
for occupancy In a short time. It Is one 
of our greatest disappointments that 
we could not greet you in our rooms 
on enrollment day. When we open 
the halls ^gain wc want you to use

UPPER CLASSES DEPLETED BUT 
NEW STUDENTS FILL RANKS- 
OUTLOOK BRIGHT 



Formal opening of Susquehanna 
University toolt place Wednesday 
morning. President Ailcens read the 
scripture les^f^on and Dr. Manhart de- 
livered the invocation. 

Prof. John Price Jackson, who was 
expected to make the opening ad- 
dress could not be present and Rev. 
Leroy F. Baker, of the Episcopal 
Church of Selinsgrove, acted as sub- 
stitute. He gave a very practical and 
forceful talk. He clearly delineated 
the advantages to the individual which 
an education will bring. His address 
was greatly enjoyed by the student 
body. 

Prof. Roy Young, of the University 
of Oklahoma, a violinist, was introduc- 
ed by the President and played an 
Indian love song and an imitation of 
the song of the bullfinch. 

Owing to the fact that so many of 
the students have joined the colors 
the upper classes are very small but 
the new classes are well up to stan- 
dard aad the outlook for a prosperous 
year is good. A goodly number of new 
students have enrolled in all the de- 
partments so that the total enrollment 
will not be much below the average.

JOTS AND BLOTS FROM 

THE COLLEGE CAMPUS 



Here we are again, some happy, 
some sad. Many of the girls as well 
as some fellows look somewhat lonely. 
For instance Sam, Steinie, and— well 
you can easily pick them out. 

Skinney came back with a pipe. Did 
you see it? 

Well what do you think of Pappy's 
mustache? A little sour milk might 
hasten its growth. 

Faust started the season real early 
and showed wonderful form. Ten no 
trump first hand. Some class, Eh? 

Social hours on Friday night in 
Seibert Hall will be inaugurated this 
year if pood order predominates in 
the dining hall. So fellows don't eat 
peas with your knife or throw dough 
balls if you wish to mingle with the 
fair sex. 

Hard Guy Shoaf got in wrong again 
Saturday night. While he was wander- 
ing around down town he was taken 
for a crook and a crowd soon gather- 
ed about him and demanded his arrest. 
He managed to break thru the gang 
and started down the street at terrifc 
speed. A howling and excited mob 
at his heels urged him to even greater 
speed. He was pursued for several 
blocks and was finally captured, but 
on the way to the borough bastile he 
gave a satisfactory explanation and 
was allowed to go free, much to his 
regret. 

Pappy Warner met some aid friends 
at Rolling Green Park. Who? 

Sam Komman got in wrong again. 
See the cuts on his face. 

Y. M. C. A. 

(Continued from Third Pago) 
fellow students, ^ quiet rest between 
classes, a game, an evening of song 
about the piano or a concert on the 
victrola. We don't care much how you 
use them so long as it is in a gentle- 
manlike manner and you are making 
yourself at home. 

On Tuesday evening we will have 
our first meeting in the Chapel, and 
the speaker will have a special mes- 
sage for the new students. A great 
many of us who came to Susquehanna 
last year for the first time heard the 
opening address and carried it profit- 
ably thru the whole year. So don't 
miss it! A cordial Invitation is ex- 
tended to all students whether you are 
a member or not. So let us see your 
face and shake your hand next Tues- 
day evening.

NOTED JURIST SPEAKS AT RALLY 
SERVICE — TIMELY REMARKS 
WELL RECEIVED 



Judge Johnson, of Union and Snyder 
County was present and spoke at the 
Rally Day Service in Trinity Sunday 
School. His address was forceful 
and right to the point. 

Bible reading was the theme of l^s 
discourse and in the course of his ad- 
dress he brought out the difference 
between the people now and in former 
times. "The Bible," he said, "was 
formerly a well known book, it was 
studied in the public schools, it was 
used as a text book, every one was 
well versed in it. Now it is seldom 
read except in the churches on Sun- 
day, and for that reason every one 
should attend the church services." 

"The Bible," he said, "is the best 
book." If you know the Bible thoroly 
you know more than all the other 
books combined. It has more poetry, 
more reasons, more song, more gootl 
reading than all others. It has more 
law than Blackslone. No man can be 
a successful lawyer unless he has a 
knowledge of the Bible. All our lav.'S 
are based on the Bible and our Gov- 
ernment is founded on its principles. 
No man' can be a success unless he 
knows the Bible and for that reason 
every man, woman and child should 
be in the Sunday School." 

His talk was very helpful thruout 
and all who heard it are sure to be 
benefited by it. 




LETIG OUTLOOK 
NOT VERY BRIGHT 



SOME GOOD MATERIAL OUT BUT 
WILL TAKE TIME TO DEVELOP 
WINNING TEAM 



Prospects for a football team are 
poor, but that does not say that there 
are not some good men on the squad. 
There are a few who have a ' very 
bright future but it will take work 
and experience before they are shap- 
ed into real warriors. 

With the men that we can develop 
this year and with the help and influ- 
ence of Susquehanna's noble sons we 
expect to have a team to compete with 
any college of our class and standing 
in the following years. Only two play- 
ers from the scrub team are back to 
take up the work and there are no 
"S" men. But there is one consoling 
feature and that is the noble spirit 
the boys have shown when called to 
duty. 

There will be a game on Warnei- 
Field Saturday, October 6, with Mill- 
ersburg. This team is represented as 
being very good and all who wish to be 
contestants in this game must report 
every afternoon for practice. Remem- 
ber boys the teams that are sent on the 
field represent the college and should 
you be among them you should feel 
the responsibility and make a good 
showing. 



EVERY MEMBER OF 1916 

SUSQUEHANNA TEAM ENLISTS 

War has dealt a stuning blow to 
football at Susquehanna, but at the 
same time it has established a great 
reputation for patriotiem among the 
wearers of the maroon and orange on 
the gridiron. 

Every member of last year's victor- 
ious football team is in military serv- 
ice. Only a few veteran scrubs com- 
prised the familiar faces when candi- 
dates were told to report on Warner 
Field for initial practice. 

Athletic Director Wingard will only 
have supervisory charge of the squad 
this season, and the work of school- 
ing the squad will be up to Middles- 
worth and Hark ins, former football 
stars here and present theological 
students. 

Here is the toll of the great record 
of patriotism made by the members 
of last year's football team: Captain- 
elect George Kirk is a second lieuten- 
ant, following his course at Fort Ni- 
agara, and stationed as an instructor 
at the Gettysburg camp; Captain Cass 
ler, center of last year's team, is with 
one of the two American ambulance 
units sent from Susquehanna, and is 
in camp at Allentown; Lieutenant J. 
Paul Harman, a Fort Niagara man, 
was one guard, and Dunmire, enlisted 
from Pittsburgh, was the other. 

Harry Farrell and James Horton, the 
tackles, are at Allentown, Murphy, one 
end, has entered the service in Boston, 
and Emerick, the other, is at Alletown. 
Lieutenant B. A. Peters, one of the 
<iuarterback8, is chaplain of the First 
Pennsylvania field artillery, and Jay

FIELD SECRETARY NOTES 

The first issue of the Susquehanna 
reaches us for out in the western part 
of the State. We rejoice in the open- 
ing of the sixtieth scholastic year of 
dear old Susquehanna. We congratu- 
late our students upon living to see 
this marvelous age in the world's his 
tory and upon being in an institution 
where they will be carefully prepared 
to do noble service in the days to 
come. 

We left home on the present trip 
September 8 and hope to greet our 
friends in Selinsgrove sometime dur- 
ing the week beginning Septembe,' 
30. Our experiences as always have 
been most interesting and pleasant. 
We have met old friends of the school 
and we have made some new ones. 
Everywhere there is a growing inter- 
est in our beloved alma mater. 

Our first stop was in the fine city 
of Williamsport. Here we spent two 
days with the Rev. Morris F. Good, 
preaching and lecturing in St. Mat- 
thew's Church, one of the most ag- 
gressive and generous churches of the 
Susquehanna Syuod, and that is say 
ing much, for we have a mighty fine 
synod. 

Avis saw us next. There we lectur- 
ed one night on Luther. The next 
morning we shared in a teacher-train- 
ing graduation program. Pastor Barb 
is one of our very best friends. We 
have been in his charge three times 
during our work, and we hope to re- 
turn. Our particular effort is not to 
"burn" our territory, but to sow seed 
that will bring results in the years to 
come. It is always an honor to re- 
turn to a field once visited. 

From Avis we took a long jump to 
Butler county, where we spent eight 
days with Rev. W. E. Watts, pastor of 
the prosperous Sprlngdale charge. 
This noble fellow was a royal host. 
Our stay with him will always be re- 
called with delight. Our space pre- 
vents the telling of his ong wait in j 
Butler from 12 noon to 10 p.m. for the ; 
preacher who came another way and 



Rev. Cleason B. King, D.D., like a 
great many other men who have made 
good in life's activities, saw the light 
of day on the farm, where he spent 
his boyhood days. After attending the 
public school he was a student at the 
Millersville State Normal School, 
where he prepared for teaching. Lat- 
er he entered Missionary Institute, 
Now Susquehanna University, and 
graduated from the Seminary in 1883. 
Hi.s first pastorate was at Apollo, Pa., 
and so successful was his work that 
the membership grew from 165 to 
over 500 in seven and one-half years. 
Then he was callep to and served the 
St. Mark church, 'then a mission, in 
Allegheny, and built their present 
church. While pattor there his niis- 
sionar:' spirit led Mm to organize the 
Mt. Olivet congregation and build 
them a church, leaving it free of debt. 
In 1898 he was elected Missionary 
Superintendent of the Pittsburgh Syn- 
od in which office he served success- 
fully for two years. Just seventeen 
years ago he became piustor of Bethel 
lutheran church of AUesheny which 
he now relinquishes to become Asso- 
ciate President of Susquehanna. His 
work in this field has been almost 
phenomenal. In one year after he be- 
came pastor the mission- became self- 
supporting; then paid off its debt, 
lat(?r bought another church which is 



FRESHMEN VICTORS | 
IN ANNUAL TIE-UP 



WEARERS OF THE GREEN BY 
CAREFUL ORGANIZATION DE- 
FEAT SECOND YEAR MEN 




Following the custom of past years 
the Freshmen defeated the Sopho- 
mores in the annual Tieup on Warner 
Field last Thursday by the score of 11 
to 0. 

Many were surprised at the outcome 
of the battle as the majority of the 
students had placed their confidence 
in the Sophs, who, altho they were out- 
numbered by five men, were heavier, 
and their weight combined with form- 
er experience was certainly to their 
advantage. 

The Sophs appeared on the field in 
good time and anxiously awaited the 
oncoming of the verdant sons. The 
Freshies, however did not appear till 
the final moment and then were ac- 
companied by a delegation of red cross 
nurses. The pistol cracked and they 
were at one another's throats. Soon 
the field was covered with struggling 
Sophs and Freshies. The Sophs strug- 
,gled valiently and for a long time the 
battle was undecided but finally the 
superior numbers of the new men told 
and the first Soph was carried across 
the line. After that there was no 
doubt as to the result. Still the Sophs 
were undaunted and fought on and 
when the end of the fifteen minutes of 
battle was announced three of their 
men, bruised and weary, remained on 
the field, while the victorious Fresh- 
men, with their clothing in shreds, rent 
the heavens with their exultant yells. 

So the 20-21 tieup will go down in 
history as the beet one for several 
eyars.

DR. C. B. KING 
valued at $60,000 and i.s free of debt. 
The memb(>rship of the church is in 
excess of 550. 

Dr. King was a trustee of Tresslei's 
Orphans' Home for twelve years, serv- 
ed as secretary of Synod three years, 
hes represented the Pittsburgh Synod 
at the meetings of the General Synod 
a number of times, and has been in 
much demand at the dedication of 
churches where his financial abality 
has been of great service in conduct- 
ing the offerings. 

His helpful wife is the daughter of 
the late Rev. Seifert, and her interest 
in the new undertaking for Susque- 
hanna is second only to tht of Dr. 
King himself. 

Susquehanna is indeed fortunate in 
securing the services of such a man. 
The college needs the endowment and 
Dr. King is the man to raise it. If it 
is at all possible to secure this money. 
Dr. King will get ;t. During his many 
years pastorate In Pittsburgh he has

PROFESSOR YOUNG'S RECITAL 

Lovers of music were given a rare 
treat Friday evenin.g when Professor 
Roy Young of the University of Okla- 
homa, appeared in Seibert Hall. He 
rendered a program that was enjoyed 
by all. 

Professor Young was formerly head 
of the department of Science in the 
University of Oklahoma but at the 
present time is taking up post graduate 
work in the eastern universities. He 
is a violinist of note, havng studied 
under some of the world's masters. 

His program was instructive as well 
as entertaining. His descriptive num- 
bers were so real that the hearer real- 
ly thought that it was the actual bird 
or animal which he heard. Several 
studies from the birds were given and 
these were so perfect and enraptured 
the mind so that the hearer imagined 
he saw the bird. In order to show 
the value of practicing he played a 
selection which would ordinarily take 
six minutes but which by much prac- 
tice he has become able to play in less 
than one minute. 

His recital, separately and collec- 
tively was one grand success and all 
who were present received great in- 
spiration. 



COLLEGE GIRLS BAR CANDY 
The faculty and nearly 400 pupils 
of Wilson College for Women have 
pledged themselves to eat no candy 
for two months. This is done to aid 
Food Administrator Hoover conserve 
sugar and help out America's Allies. 



After three days men grow weary of 
a wench, a gust, a weather rainy. 

After crosses and losses men grow 
humbler and wiser.

WM. KLECKNER, OF SUNBURY 
SUCCEEDS E. P. SONES AS IN- 
STRUCTOR IN BUSINESS 



Susquehanna can feel proud in op- 
ening up this year with Prof. Kleckncr 
at the head of the commercial Depart- 
ment. She has always had good busi- 
ness men at the head of this depart- 
ment, and we feel sure that Prof. 
Kleckner will not lower the.s tandard. 
but continue to raise it to a higher de- 
gree of efficiency. 

Prof. Kleckner does not come to Sus- 
quehanna as a man lacking in train- 
ing and experience. He be.gan his ad- 
vanced studies at Bucknell, where he 
remained two years. After leaving 
Bucknell he entered Potts Shorthand 
College, Williamsport, Pa., whore he 
completed the course. Starting upon 
his career he found that his prepara- 
tion for life's work was not complete. 
With this conviction he entered upon 
and completed a course in the Phila- 
delphia School of Commerce. 

Prof. Kleckner is a man with prac- 
tical experience. He taught sixteen 
years in the commercial departments 
of Business Colleges, five years in the 
Sunbury High School and one year in 
the Hawkins Normal, Virginia. 

During the short time that he has 
been at Susquehanna he has left an 
impression among the students both on 
the campus and in the class room that 
he has ability and talent as a teacher. 
He is a man that has his work at 
heart, and will do all he can for the 
uplift of Susquehanna and will send 
out men and women into the business 
world who will make successful lead- 
ers. 



SLOUCHINESS 

The Grouch is decidedly a popular 
figure nowdays. He is the man who 
wins a commission. Disagreeable as 
he may be in the office, in the training 
camp his stern demeanor attracts the 
attention of he powers to be. The 
namby-pamby, pleasant-voiced person 
does not easily learn to rap out his 
orders with the action of a steel trap, 
however great his booklearning may 
be. There must be a streak of grouch- 
iness in a good line officer. 

But the Slouch is in worse repute 
than ever. Doctor Ilibben, in welcom- 
iii;; the Princeton students at the 
opening of the Fall Term, referred to 
a letter he had received from the 
Adjutant General, who gave "slouchi- 
ni'ss" of manner, carriage, mind, and 
dispositions the chief cause of failure 
to win army commlBsions. The col- 
lege president urged that students 
spruce up generally. It is easy enough 
to recover from slouchiness of garb 
and carriage, but it is not so easy to 
make the mind behave. Students 
must take heed, but the teacher must 
play his part, too. Too much of our 
teaching is perfunctory and permits 
the students minds to browse about at 
ease. The military atmosphere of tho 
time should penetrate the classroom 
and insist that those who have the 
privilege of study should get some 
very tangible and practical knowledge 
to fit them for the service to be re- 
quired of them in this now very diflQ- 
cult world.— Evening Ledger,

MANLINESS 

Ther^' ;;i'' many passive virtues that 
are worth while and that are ad- 
mirable. Gentleness, patience, meek- 
ness, kindness — all these arc neces- 
sary maiKs of the real Christian char- 
acter. The m-eat men and the ,E;rcat 
women of llie world, of all times, have 
manifested tlie power of such com- 
mendafile trails in their lives, and 
have made the v.orkl a better iilace 
In which I I ;■ ' 1 ' ■' ' r I'lem. 



But the paiiiiici' (A ."•! . ''•'• \ 
of Moses, th(> aiMial.iir y (,! .lohn 
"would have been worlli litile lo !hiir

Manliness meiius ferce. 
and is not necfssarily a 
trait that is confined lo ihi' repii'sen-' 
tativts of the masculine persuasion. 
Many women of the world have also 
shown this trait, and are wortliy ex- 
amples for all persons of the after 
generations to follov.-. Tlie l;o!;l!iess 
of Peter, the enthusiasm of Poul, the 
heroism of Lutlu'r, above all the tre- 
mendous energy and spirit of the Lord 
himself did not lessen or interfere with 
the exhibition of those mildi-r cknrae- I 

teristics which pre-eminently marked i),„.„ ^^.j,„ remodeled, less 
all these men. The beauty of the 
Christian graces was enhanced by the 
more pronor.nced virtues, the positive 
force, that dwdt in each of those 
named. 

No b(tter example of what is gen- 
erally understood In- manliness can be 
found tiian that set forth by Jesus. 
He was love incarnate and gentleness 
personified, but tliese did not make 
him weak. He was full of compassion 
for the needy and tlu' erring, but He 
was always unutti r;ib]y opposed to 
sin in every form. He was no weak 
man swept along in the current of 
human life, but a man who made the 
curnnt for tlie rt si of llie world. In 
every word, every act Jesus showed 
the force and i)ositiveness of His 
character and stands forth among all 
the world as a manly man, in every 
sense of the word — largehearted, noble 
spirited, generous to the limits of sclf- 
saciitiee. 

A manly nuui in these days will find 
mnny an ()i)i>"i-t unity to shov,' his 
manliness. For one thing he will be a 
man of his word. Too many are not. 
Truthfulness too often fails to be giv- 
en a ( hance in liuman life. !Men are 
too apt lo be punctilious in large mat- 
ters of business, or of social interest, 
but in the litile things of life they are 
too often found to be marked by a 
disregard for exact truthfulm ss that 
is demanded by the religion they pro 
fess. They fail to keep their engage 
ments; they cannot say no, but .just 
as frequently say yes, with no thought 
of keeping their promise. They do not 
pay their little debts. In their daily 
iives these little meannesses crop out 



men. 

G. ALFRED SCHOCH 

<;. Alfred Schoch, retired merchant 
and a leading financier of Snyder coun- 
iy, aged 77 years, died at his home 
ill Middleburg, at 9 o'clock Fridav 

Sept. 28. 

For tlie past two years he has been 
in failing health and for ten days had 
been confined to his bed but his con- 
dition was not. regarded serious, until 
early in the week. 

He was a native of Middlebur,g and 
for a numlicr of years conducted a 
large store at that place. He was one 
of the leading factors in the organ- 
ization of the First National Bank, 
of Middleburg and was president of 
the institution for more than twentj'- 
six years. He was also president of 
the First National Bank of New Ber- 
lin, and of the Middlecreek \alley 
Telephone Company, and a director of 
Susquehanna T'niversity. He was 
deeply interested in educational r.iai- 
<■■:■'•■ rnd served for several terms as 
-ler of the Board of Education 
in his native town. He also repre- 
sented Snyder county for two terms 
in the State Legislature. He was op- 
posed to int( mperanee in any lonn 
and was a leader in the movement 
to have all licensed hotels in Middle- 
burg closed and to accomplisli this 
end was one of a group of men wlui 
organized a company to purchase and i SS 
conduct the !\Iiddl(-burg Inn, which 
gained state-wide reputation as a no- 
licensed hotel. 

When lli(> Court House at Middle- 

than two 
years ago, he purchased a big clock 
for the tower wliii h was presented to 
the tax payers of the county. He 
was also a leader in th(^ Lutheran 
church, at Middleburg, and was one 
of ils heaviest contributors. 

He owned extensive farm land and 
took much pride in the management 
of liis estate. 

His widow and a foster son, Allen 
Srhoch, a student at tle^ Beljefonte 
Academy, and one sister, Mrs. Louis 
Pawling, of Selinsgrove, survive. 

Funeral services were held at his 
lat(> home Monday afternoon at 3 
o'clock. Rev. , Hayes ofllciated and 
burial was made in tlio Middleburg

City. During his pastoraTe trie merr,- 
bership has greatly increased and the 
property holdinRs have been raiscnl 
from $7000 to fS.^JOOO by the purchase 
of the parsonage and enlar,s;ement of 
the church. When he came to tht 
charge he found it a mission. Four 
years ago he brought it to self-sup 
port. Recently the church celebrated 
the Fifteenth Anniversary of its re- 
organization and over $800 was re- 
ceived. 

Rev. I. S. Sasaman '09. of Nortlumi-

PHILO 

Philo Lit (vary Sofii^ty opened an- 
other year with a rousing meeting on 
Thursday evening. A large attend- 
ance was present and a fine program 
was rendered. Miss Laura Schoch 
and Mr. Allbeck gave some very in- 
teresting readings after which Mrs. 
Hobart played a violin solo. Miss 
Doothy Rearick delivered an oration 
and V.'illiam'Deck'^r read the current 
news of th<^ day. Mr. Selin Ulrich 
sang two very lieautiful solos. The 
Philo by Mr. Kornman was extra good 
and vas ttioroly enjoyed by all. 

Philo invites all the students to 
come to her meetings and to affdiate 
themselves with her. There is no bet- 
ter thing arovmd the college than the 
Literary Societies and nothing will be 
of more advantage to the individual 
in after life than the training he gets 
in them. It is the privilege and duty 
of ev(>ry student to become identified 
with a society and take their part in it. 
The individual will reap great bene- 
fits from it if he will only work. The 
literary talent will increase according 
to the amount of effort put into the 

work. 

The spirit of fellowship and kind- 
ness whicli prevails in the societies 
has an uplifting influflenflflee on the 
individual and will do much to relieve 
the pang.-: of hon.esickne.ss and lonli- 
ni-ss of Ihoi" away from liome the 
first time. Let every one join a so- 
ciety. Philo invites you. Come.

delighted with I'm? work of llieir young 
and able pastor and are busy putting 
him up a parsonage to cost ^'-onn v.-ith j 
all modern improvements. 

Chicora was our next appointment. 
Rev. C. W. 'arnett, an alumnus of 
Suskuehanna, and one of her most de- 
voted friends, came in his car to 
bring us to his home from the Spring- 
daie charge. We had a fine time with 
this good brother. In his comfortabb^ 
parsonage we found the rest and the 
refreshnu'ut and the cordiality that is 
the very balm of Gilead to the Aveary 
traveler. Pastor Barnett is serving 
his first charge and is now in his 
eighth year. He has made a great 
success of his work and his people 
are very devoted. We preached and 
lectured to fine congregations in both 
churches. 

These notes leave our hands Satur- 
day morning, September 29, in Butler, 
where we have been since Wednesday 
preceding with Rev. J. R. Nicholas, 
pastor of Trinity church. Brother 
Barnett brought us to the city In his 
car. The Trinity people were expect- 
ing ourf coming and good audiences 
were present to hear our lectures and 
see our pictures Wednesday and 
Thursday nights. Friday evening we 
delivered the seromn at preparatory 
service. A great experience in Butler 
was an address to 750 students in the 
High School. Principal Irvine and 
.Superintnedent Gibson were most cor- 
dial. Their is no honor that we more 
highly prize and no opportunity that 
we more diligently seek than that of 
sepaking to our young American citi- 
zens. Pastor Nichouas is a fine fel- 
low. He is just completing his first 
year in the mlni.'jtry and is doing good 
work. 

We go from Butler to spend two 
days wiOi Rev. A. W. Smith, pastor 
of the Worlhington Charge. Wo anti- 
cipate a delightful visit to this old and 
progressive charge.

JOIS AND BLOTS FROM 
THE G0LLE6E CAMPUS 

Wo were under the impression that 
matrimony only affected the soldiers 
but we are now convinced that it has 
penetrated the college life too. Pro 
fes.sor Keener made a proposal to one 
of our fair co-ed.s last week. Bill Jan- ' 
son proclaimed his love to "Riney" 
and it was immediately accepted and 
the knot tied at once by Theolog 
Burt. Neidig cheered the saddened 
heart of a war widow and Rine prom- 
ised himself to "Mousey" after his 
first wife was dead. Among the new 
students several flames have been 
started.

The Campus Beautiful— The trees 
stretch forth their arms with majestic 
air, casting their cool shadows across 
our path everywhere; the birds in the 
bu.sh make the heart glad with their 
melody; the boys with their midnight 
song do their best to awaken the 
girls from their accustomed rest; and 
the girls are choice, as each one 
knows, some are begonia but others 
are rose. 



i Boys, where is the Orchestra, the 
Band, the Glee Club? Get busy. We 
believe the new head of the business 
department will be a great help to 
you. Meet him and talk the matter 
over. 



During the tie-up last week the Sus-

Monday night, October 1st, burst 
forth in a beautiful solemnity with 
the full moon riding high in the 
heavens. The birds had gone to rest, 
and the gay old inght owl poking his 
beak out of his nest found the Sopho- 
mores gathered at their initial feed 
for the new scholastic year. 

Under the able chaperonage of Mrs. 
Hoyt-Aire, the jolly bunch hiked to 
the Island to the home of Mr, Joseph 
Janson, arriving there about eight 
o'clock. After the usual greetings 
were exchanged the cooks and wait- 
ers retired to the kitchen to prepare 
the eats. 

Joseph Janson the star oyster pad- 
der of Dauphin county took general 
charge of his favorite part of the ev- 
ening's work. Ere long the tables 
were set and the delicious bounties 
so skilfully prepared were laid out be- 
fore the hungry party. For a person 
to stand at the far end of the room 
and look out over that wonderful lay- 
out it reminded him of one of those j 
ancient royal feasts which we often i 
read about. But such a rare sight 
cound not long remain for the call to 
sit up to the table came and the merri- 
ment of the night was changed from 
jesting and talking, to feasting and 
toasting. 

Warner, having spent the greater 
part of the evening across the street, 
was especially zealous on the eats. 
Neidig, being seated beside one of the 
professors' fair daughters, claimed that 
he had to hold back a little lest he 
should lose his stand-in. Janson, the 
class preside nt, decided not to take a 
girl so that he could eat a double 
share. So on thru the night the re- 
veling continued altho the absence of 
wine and other intoxicating beverages 
was as always a predominate feature. 
When all had eaten as much as pos- 
sible the tables were cleared away 
and volunteers were called to wash 
dishes. Most conspicious among these 
was Neidig, who was ably assisted by 
Miss Woodruff. After more merri- 
mentj with many a groan of fullness, 
the jolly Sophomore bunch made their 
way slowly but surely back thru the 
dreary stillness of the moonlight to 
the beautiful old campus. 



As a reward to the fellows for ex- 
cellent behavior in the dining hall, 
Mrs. Hobart, the preceptress, arrang- 
ed a social hour in Seibert Hall last 
Friday evening. It was thought that 
in this way the young men and the 
fair co-eds might be brought together 
and a pleasant time enjoyed. Elabor- 
ate preparations were made, and the 
fair damsels lined up to await the com- 
ing of their noble knights. 

Soon they broke up into groups and 
games of various kinds were begun. 
A jolly time ensued and one which will 
long be remembered. The persons 
present were loud in their praise of 
the new management under which 
these new privileges are allowed. 
The only thing that was lacking to 
make the social hour was fellows for 
not a single young man was present. 
What was wrong, fellows? Was it 
that you did not wish to take the 
blame for behaving yourself in the 
dining room?

SOMETIMES 
If times are hard, and you feel blue. 
Think of the others worrying too; 
Just because your trials are many. 
Don't think the rest of us haven't any. 
Life is made up of smiles and tears, 
Joys and sorrows, mixed with fears; 
And though to us it seems one-sided, 
Trouble is pretty well divided. 
If we could look in every heart. 
We'd find that each one has its part, 
And those who travel fortune's road, 
Sometimes carry the biggest load. 



Central Pennsylvania Synod held its 
Sixty-Fourth annual convention at 
State College last week. It is of spe- 
cial interest to Susquehanna because 
of the many items of business relating 
to the university. 

Three of our theological graduates 
were consecrated to the gospel min- 
istry by ordination and five of our 
present Seniors in Theology were li- 
censed. Those who were ordained 
were H. Clay Bergstresser, of Salona, 
and Harry Miller, of Espy charge, of 
the class of last year and Clyde W. 
Sheaffer, of Liverpool, of the 1916 
class. The licentiates are Walter E. 
Brown, Guy H. Middlesworth, John F. 
Harkina, Wilson P. Ard and Fred 
Greninger. 

The Synod at this sesssion also con- 
sidered the matter of giving ten 
thousand dollars to the University on 
the endowment. The matter of the 
merger of the three great bodies of 
the Lutheran Church in America was 
discussed and adopted unanimously. 

Dr. Houtz, of the University Faculty, 
was president of the Synod and several 
other of our professors belong to this 
synod.

1919 LANTHORN 
The Junior class have let contracts 
for their annual. Gilbert and Bacon 
will do the portrait work and the 
Hammersmith - Koilmeyer Company 
will do the engraving and printing. 
The book will be well up to standard 
and in many ways will be the best 
published at Susquehanna. It will be 
bound in brown leather with name 
stamped in gold. The pages will be 
gold bordered and the book will be 
first class in every respect. 



Susquehanna lost its first football 
game last Saturday when it was de- 
feated by the strong team from Mil- 
lersburg. Our boys put up a fine game 
considering the fact that most of the 
team are new at the game. It was 
not that they did not fight for victory 
but the greater experience and weight 
of the opponents was too much. 

The advantage was with the vis- 
itors from the start. They were 
heavier and had played together be- 
fore. When they came on the field it 
was plainly seen that the victory was 
theirs. But our own boys were un- 
dounted by this and went into the 
game with great pep. Our line was 
lighter than theirs but several times 
they were held for downs. Our back- 
field worked well and several large 
gains were made. But lack of ex- 
perience was too great a handicap and 
we were unable to keep them from 
crossing the goal line. Five times they 
did this but on the kicking they were 
very poor and only one try was suc- 
cessful. So the game ended with the 
score standing 31-0 in favor of the 
visitors. 

Altho we lost the game yet some 
good material showed itself and with 
a few more week's practice a strong 
team will be developed. Of the new 
men, Bastian, Ent, Cole, Shannon, and 
Gessner, showed good form, while 
Captain Janson and Pendergast played 
a brilliant game. 

The next game is with Lewistown 
at Lewistown next Saturday.

FIELD SECRETARY NOTES 

Worthington, Pa., was the scene of 
our labors September 29 to October 
1, inclusive. We had a delightful 
time with our young brother Rev, A. 
W. Smith, who is doing good work in 
this important charge of the Pitts- 
burgs Synod. The three days were 
very strenuous, but at their close we 
rejoiced in the opportunity that came 
to us of preaching and lecturing to 
the people of the two churches. We 
found much interest In Susquehanna. 
The people were delighted with our 
pictures of the school and the sur- 
rounding country. 

Our visit to Worthington was of 
particular interest because it enabled 
us to meet the Rev. J. W. Schwartz, 
D.D., who served the charge for al-

MORAL COURAGE 
To yield to any outward opinion 
and to do or act contrary to our own 
inner conviction of what is true and 
right is to be a moral coward. The 
coward is the man who speaks what he 
thinks people want to hear instead of 
what he knows to bo true. He who 
tries to satisfy everybody and who 
has not a mind of his own is in danger 
of satisfying no one, not even himself. 
He who thinks how things will look 
instead of how things really are is a 
mere policy person — a sort of chame- 
leon. We should determine our course 
of action and govern our conduct ac- 
cording to our inner conscience and 
convistion of what is right and true so 
that we may not play the coward in 
any situation or relation. Let us stand 
for our principles at all times. — Luth- 
eran Young People.

CLASS LOYALTY 

With the tio-up the forma] class 
scraps came to an end for another 
year. These friendly contests are all 
right. They are a joy to look back 
on in after years. No time of the col- 
lege life is happier than thos(> first 
few weeks of the fall term of tlie first 
two years. 

But it is not for these scraps that we 
come to college. Wc come to work 
and it is not good to let these things 
interfere too much with the more Im- 
portant tilings. Since these are past 
we can now settle down to our regu- 
lar work and reap the benefits. 

A rivalry, more or less vifiorous, will 
continue and it is well that it should, 
but it must be friendly and not mean. 
It is only natural that there should be 
a certain amount of antagonism be- 
tween the two lower classes but this 
will not interfere with the personal 
friendships among the individuals. 
Strong friendships are sure to be 
formed between the membeis of the 
dilferent classes and all will f(H>l them- 
selves to i)e brothers. All aie a part 
of the college community and should 
do all things for the betterment of 
Susquehanna. In all things the col- 
lege must come before the class or 
any other relation. Susquehanna is 
the important thing and these others 
are only minor details. If we keep 
this in mind we will all feel better in 
the end when we observe the effect it 
will most certainly produce, both to 
ourselves and to the dear institution 
of which we are a part. Let it al- 
ways be Susquehanna first, other 
things afterwards. 



THE LOYAL LUTHERAN CHURCH 
Loyal! Charges of disloyalty against 
certain members of the Lutheran 
Church in the United States should 
not be allowed to riflect upon the 
patriotism of the Lutheran Church as 
a body. Whether inspired by the 
criticism aimed against it or not, the 
fact remains that in getting out a 
booklet, entitled "Christian Service in 
War Time," the Lutheran Church has 
done perhaps what no other denomina- 
tion has done. It is suggested that 
churches havt^ an honor roll for tb.e 
names of all in iiiilitiiiy or Red Cross 
service, and that when enlisted men 
depart they be asked to come forward 
after the general prayer for a Avord of 
encouragement and of "exhortation to 
serve their country in the fear of 
Cod." A part of the booklet is devot- 
ed to special advice to enlisted men, 
reminding them that the Church is 
praying for Ibem. The descendants of 
the Pilgrims could not express them- 
selves more patriotically than these 
Luthedans whose fathers came from 
Germany.— Leslie's. 



Beware of him that is slow to anger; 
he is angry for something, and will not 
be uplcascd for nothing. 



COLLEGE SONGS 
SUSQUEHANNA 

The story we would tell you, friends, 

Would cover many a book. 
The Subject matter of the same 

Is foimd in every nook 
Of old Susquehanna's large campus, 

The common battleground. 
Whose trees might whisper secrets 

Grave, amusing, and profound. 

Chorus 

Of Susquehanna now v.e sing. 
Let Susquehanna's praises ring, 

Loyal to her by night and by noon. 
We'll wave the orangi^ and maroon. 

Loyal to her by night and by noon. 
We'll wave the orange and maroon. 

How dear to one and all the name 

Their Alma Mater bears. 
When th(^y leave its classic halls 

And shouldered worldly cares, 
O, winning maids and noble youths 

Of dear old college days. 
Come, join in recollections fond 

And tell us of your ways. 

In classroom and on gridiron, friend, 

Susquehanna will stand the test. 
Defeat to her a word unknown. 

Her motto "Do your best" 
With vim then let us give the yell. 

Display her banner bright. 
That all may know of old S. U., 

She stands for God and right. 

(RAH! RAH! SUSQUEHANNA) 
Rah! Rah! Rah! Su.'iquehanna! 
Rah! for the Orange and Maroon. 

Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! 
Rah! for th(> Orange and Maroon. 

Rah! Susquehanna. 

Rah ! Susquehanna. 
Rah! for the Orange and Maroon. 

Rah! Rah! Rah! Rah! 
Rah! for the Orange and Maroon. 

(WE ARE JOLLY STUDENTS) 
Well we're from Susquehanna, 
And of this we're very proud. 
We're going to help our boys to win 
By cheering long and loud. 

will not win, 

You know the reason why. 

Our boys v,ill push the ball across, 

And run the score up high. 

(WHOOP) 
Then we'll be jolly students. 
True and loyal we. 
As we go cheering. 
On to victory, e-e-e-e-e-e-e. 
We are out to win boys. 
We must win tis true 
For it's hip hurrah for the team boys. 
Of old S. U. Rah! Rah! Rah! (Repeat) 

(SUSQUEHANNA'S 

ALL VICTORIOUS) 

Tune, Keep the Lower Lights Burning. 
Susquehanna's all victorious. 
On the diamond, field and track. 
Play the game boys strong and steady. 
And we'll win the Victory back 
Shout aloud for Susquehanna, 
Play the game as ne'er before, 
Pass the ball boys strong and steady, 
cSore once more, oh, ssore once more.

THE LUTHERANM MANUAL 

The Text Book of Lutheranism 

By JUNIUS B REMENSNYDER, 

D. D., LL. D, 

This is a book which will give 
you a thorough understanding of 
the doctrines, worship and gov- 
ernment of the Lutheran Church. 
Beginning with the name Luth- 
eran it discusses every import- 
ant feature of the Church and 
discloses a vision of our future 
here in America. 

Dr. Remensnyder, with his 
wonderful grasp of his subject, 
has explained and discussed 
these doctrines in such a way as 
to make them clear and interest- 
ing to everyone. 

We consider this book a vital 
necessity to every Lutheran.

PHILO 

Philosophian Literary Society held 
its second regular meeting of the term 
in Philo Hall, Friday evening. A 
splendid program was rendered, show- 
ing that Philo still has the splendid 
spirit exhibited by her organizers of 
old. An essay by Miss Mowrer was 
well received for its originality of 
composition and forcefulness of de- 
livery. The reading by Miss Helen 
Fetterolf was especially interesting 
because of its insight into the human 
side of our soldier boys, following 
which Miss Evelyn Allison rendered a 
humorous reading. Miss Grossman 
delivered an oration and Miss Speigel- 
mire won long applause by her ren- 
dition of Polonaise In A by L. Chopin. 
Mr. Shoal read the current news of 
the day and Miss McCool by her care- 
ful judgment and vivid presentation 
swayed her audience when she sub- 
stituted for a declamation a reading 
of an adventure of a Tommie in the 
trenches. "Philo" was read by Mr. 
Allbeck. Announcement of the nom- 
inees for the election to be held at the 
next meeting v/as made and the so- 
ciety adjourned to meet on Friday 
evening, October 12. Philo always 
has good, live meetings like these. 
Her programs are ever of an enjoy- 
able length and interest and therefore 
she invites all new students to be- 
come members and receive the invalu- 
able training she offers. She has 
trained for public speaking many who 
have joined the alumni and are mak- 
ing good and she will continue to do 
80 for all who enter her portals. 
Long live Phllo! 



ALUMNI NOTES 

Edward Phillips '17, has accepted a 
position as head coach at Irving School 
at Tarrytown on the Hudson. The 
school is one of the most exclusive in 
the country and it is quite an honor to 
Susquehanna to have an alumnus 
there. 

Miss Pearl Gcisel and Miss Margaret 
Rhodes have matriculated in the Uni- 
versity of Pittsburgh. 

Miss Eeulah Elliott is attending the 
King School of Oratory in Pittsburgh. 

Lewis R. Lenhart has enlisted in the 
Signal Corps and is now awaiting the 
call to service. 

Miss Gertrude Leffler was a visitor 
at Susquehanna Saturday. 

Lieut. S. E. Bateman is now in 
now in charge of the post hospital at 
the AUentown Camp. 

Ralph Woodruff, of the Susquehanna 
Ambulance Unit has been promoted 
to Orderly to Lieut. Decker. 



Y. M, C. A. 

The first regular meeting of the Y. 
M. C. A. was held last Tuesday ev- 
ening in the chapel of Gustavus 
Adolphus Hall. Mr. Stucmpfle, the 
first speal<er of the evening, presented 
the Y. M. C. A. as the great factor in 
developing the spirit, mind and body. 
Mr. Shannon, of the Seminary, was 
next called upon and he responded 
with some excellent advice to the new 
students. He made a special appeal 
for co-operation with the officers on 
the part of the student body. Mr. 
Crossland, also of the Seminary, gave 
a forceful adress filled with spicy ad- 
vice to the new students. 

Mr. Bastian and Mr. Auman were 
elected to fill the offices lest vacant by 
the enlistments of Swartz and Toichart 
in the Ambulance Corps. 

Work is progressing rapidly on the 
new Y. M. C. A. rooms and we ex- 
pect to have them in readiness in the 
near future. All in all v/e have made 
a fine beginning and the success of the 
future lies with the members them- 
selves. Teamwork counts ju.st as 
much here as it does on the football 
field. So lets get together, fellows, 
and make this a banner year in the 
history on the Y. M. C. A. at Susque- 
hanna. 

A little bit of sunshine, 
A little bit of rain; 
Mingled with our folly, 

Makes us forget our pain. 
So come out on Tuesdays, 

And forget your work and play; 
And hear the college fellows sing 

Hymns of praise, and pray. 



CLIO 

Clio was well attended last Friday 
night had a good program was ren- 
dered. The names of several new 
students were proposed as members. 
Clio has made a good beginning and 
we hope that she will continue so 
thruout the year. Let every member 
of Clio do his or her bit and help make 
this year a grand success. Clio meets 
every Friday evening at 7:30 and 
everyone is welcome. 

The program of last liYiday was as 
follows: Essay, Kathryn Persing; 
Select Oration, Bernice Swartz; De- 
bate — ^Resolved that America owes 
more to America than to Belgium. 
AflJrmative, Crossland and Pappen- 
fus; Negative, Williamson and Cole; 
won by affirmative. Vocal solo, Au 
man; Music, Hulda Stelninger; Clio 
Herald, Bastian.

JOTS AND BLOTS FROM 
THE COLLEGE GiPOS 



Four girls in one evening is going 
some. It shows that the fellow is 
mighty popular. The only bad thing 
about it is that it is rather hard on the 
pocketbook. How about it Neidig? 



When the cat's away the mice will 
play. At least Allbeck thinks so. 
While away on a brief trip some per- 
son, animal or thing, made off with 
several birthday boxes including a 
special one from ?????. Not satis- 
fied with that Neidig had to make it 
worse by stealing the fair maiden. 



It is reported that false hair is com- 
ing down and that ladies dresses are 
going up — in price. 



Sling the Hash. Pappy has added 
another sideline to his regular employ- 
ment. He is now chief assistant to 
Joe. 



More men are needed on the foot 
ball field. Come out and do your bit. 
You can play if you only try. It is 
your duty to do what you can for your 
college. 



It is nice to sit in church alone and 
wait on your friend in the choir. Is'nt 
it W^arner. 



The chestnut crop has been corn- 
ered for the present year. Shoaf left 
on Monday morning and when he came 
back he had the whole 1917 crop in 
his pockets. 



Our band is once more on the go. 
Let us all do our share to boost this 
worthy organization. 



The conduct in the dining hall is 
exceptionally good since the new rul- 
ing went into effect but no one evi- 
dently wants to take the responsibility 
of being''good. 



Mum Seel is some planner. Sunday 
morning he had it all arranged so that 
he could be alone at a table with one 
of the fair co-eds. Go to it Mum.

And he is a Freshman too.

ILLOSIRllIED LECIURE 
BY NAIIVE JAPANESE 



MINOSAKU TOSHI YAMAMOTO 
GIVES VERY HELPFUL TALK 
ON JAPANESE RELATIONS 



Those who attended the lecture in 
Science Hall last Friday -were amply 
repaid for the time spent there. At 
that time Minosaku Toshi Yamamoto 
gave a very interesting and helpful 
address on the relations of Japan and 
America. Mr. Yamamoto Is a native 
of Japan and has been in this country 
for the last twelve years attending 
schools. He is a graduate of the Uni- 
versity of Pittsburgh. He is a very 
learned man and his talk was brimful 
of facts. 

In the first place he told how unfair 
some of our new.'^papers have been to 
Japan and how unfair some of theirs 
have been toward the United States. 
They have pauited the countires as 
black as possible and have tried to 
bring about war. Japan, he said, does 
not want war and desires peace but 
these certain newspapers are making 
it difficult to pre.-^crv'e peace. 

"Japan has not forgotten what Amer- 
ica has (lone for her in the past 60 
years. Forty years ago there was only 
one Protestant Christian church in 
Japan and only eleven Protestant 
Christians. Now there are 1056 
churches and 96,000 protestants. By 
tbe help of America Japan can be 
made a great Christian nation." 

After the lecture he showed several 
views of the homellfe of Japan which 
brought home to the people a better 
idea of what that great nation of lit- 
tle people are like. 

His lecture was thoroly enjoyed by 
all and much information was derived 
from it. 



UMBRELLA LOSS STIRS SYNOD; 
LITTLE NAME TAG SAVES DAY 



Rev. Dr. C. B. King, of Pittsburgh, 

•created somewhat of a stir during the 

joint session of the Pittsburgh and 

Allegheny Synods of the Lutheran 

Church in John.stown last week. 

He had just finished a strong plea 
for funds. for Susquehanna University. 
sperJdng of thousands of dollars as if 
they were as numerous as the leaves 
now falling off the trees. 

The joint session was drawing to a 
close, and the ministers were having 
their last words, bringing out some 
points that they had forgotten. Dr. 
liing jumped to his feet. Others who 
had taken the floor about the same 
time waited. 

"1 have lost my umbrella," remark- 
ed Dr. King. 

Losing umbrellas in a church con- 
vention, or any other kind of a con- 
vention is almost to be expected, and 
the ministers and laymen looked as 
If they thought Dr. King had slight 
chances of recovering his shower-stick. 

But Dr. King had marked that um- 
brella and he had an idea that he had 
a better chance of recovering it than 
If it had not been mai'ked. He was 
right. 

"Here It is," shouted a delegate in 
the rear of the church. On the handle 
of the umbrella was a metal tag bear- 
ing the name and address of the own- 
er. Dr. King walked briskly back the 
aisle and clasped his shower-stick to 
hia bosom as If it were the prodigal 
son himself. The other ministers 
plainly showed that they shared Dr. 
King's Joy over the recovery of bis 
lost umbrella. 



BAND ORGANIZES WITH 
W. M, KLEGKNER LEADER 



COLLEGE BAND BEGINS WORK 
FOR YEAR— PROSPECTS BRIGHT 
—EXPERIENCED MEN REPORT 



Again the band is under way and 
its inspiring notes charm the hearts of 
the students who are in the vicinity of 
its activity. 

Tuesday night the band was organ- 
ized and the following officers were 
elected for the ensuing year: Presi- 
dent, Gob's; Manager, Papenfus. Prof. 
Kleckner, head of the Commercial 
Department, is directing the band. 
He is a very able instructor, having 
directed bands at several other col- 
leges and last year directed the Sun- 
bury High School Orchestra. Nearly 
all of the men wha played on last 
year's band have returned and many' 
new students have offered their serv- 
ices. The band last year was com- 
posed almost entirely of untrained 
men but this year nearly all have had 
some experience and indications are 
for a successful season. 

Band practice will be held twice a 
week, Wednesday evening at 6:30 
and Friday at 12:30. The band is a 
big feature in college activities and the 
hearty cooperation in the student body 
Is needed to help make this a big suc- 
cess. 



TO OUR BOYS AT ALLENTOWN 

As I walksd upon the campus 
Very quietly, one darkened night; 

There was no moon at all, and 
The stars gave forth a twinkling 
light. 

And I called for chums and classmates. 
Yes I called but my voice would not 
soar. 

So 1 whispered: "God bless the boys, 
S. U. boys in Section 74." 

Then 1 listened as I wandered 
Round the gym and football field. 

And heard not the voice of one 
From that team that would not yield. 

Then I wandered to the sundial 
In that dark and midnight hour. 

And I prayed that my chums 
Might be clothed with special power. 

Yes I prayed for they have sacrificed 
All the joys of college life. 

That they may help a suffering 
brother 
In this great and cruel strife. 

Then I saw the sick and suffering. 
And the ambulance and red cross, 

All the boys on guard and duty 
Bringing joy, without a loss. 

Then I prayed; and while I listened 
I heard Jesus say: "Blessed are ye. 

In as much as ye did it to the least of 
these 
Ye did it also, imto me." 

Yes, I have answered God's high call- 
ing 
To spread the Gospel by his great 
might. 
But on the campus, in the midnight, 
Btill I prayed 
"God bless our boys tonight."

HERSHiP CAMPAIGN 
N COLLEGE Y. M. C. A. 



ANNUAL CAMPAIGN FOR MEM- 
BERS THIS WEEK— AIM 100 PER 
CENT ENROLLMENT 



Wednesday will be red letter day 
in the Y. M. C. A. activities of the year 
when the annual membership cam- 
paign will be staged. The Y. M. C. A. 
will mean more to the fellows this 
year than ever before and every man 
of Susquehanna should affiliate him- 
self with this wo.-fhy organization. 
There is much work lo be done this 
year and the Y. M. C. A. needs every 
follow to have a successful year. The 
rooms have been repaired and we now 
have quarters that are equal to those 
of many large institutions. In the Y. 
M. C. A. one gets the true fellowship 
of college men. ThcMc all meet for 
th^ betterment of themselves and 
others. 

What we want this year is a hundred 
per cent enrollment: it i^; the privilege 
and duty of every student to join the 
association on Wednesday. Do not 
put it off when you arc consulted but 
join at once. The campaign will 
start on Wednesday at 9 a.m., and 
continue until 6 p.m Tv.-q teams, the 
Reds and the Blues will do the recruit- 
ing. The line-up of the reds includes 
W. Brown, Rine, Auman, Staib and 
Papenfus, while Harkins, Cole, Shoaf, 
Bastian and Steumpfle will lead the 
Blues. The scores '"ill be announced 
every hour and an honor list will be 
posted at 6 p.m., containing the names 
of those A«ho have become members. 
Watch the bulletins for further in- 
formation. 

Talk it up, studes, and let us make 
this campaign a howling success. 



FOOTBALL GAME 

The Varsity will play Mt. Carmel on 
Warner Field next Saturday. On the 
following Saturday they will go to 
Wllliamsport and play Dickinson Sem- 
inary. 



Y. M. C. A. 

At the first meeting held in the nev,r 
Y. M. C. A. rooms, we w'cre honored 
by the presence of Dr. Allison as the 
speaker for the evening. His words 
backed by a modest bearing and com- 
ing from a true Christian heart left 
an impression on the minds of lys 
hearers that will never be forgotten. 
The substance of his message, w^hich 
was mainly for the new students, was 
as follows: You have made a great 
change In coming from home to col- 
lege because you have broken away 
from influences that have heretofore 
steadied your life. You are* here to 
develope your mind, and are given 
liberal opportunity to study things of 
nature, wonder over pages of litera- 
ture and history and delve into the 
realms of biology. This is all vital, 
but there is a greater phase, and that 
Is your spiritual developement. "I 
wish I could impress it on your minds 
that we need spiritual food just as 
much as we need food for our bodies,. 
As the basis for the rest of his ad- 
dress Dr. Allison selected I Cor. 16:13, 
"Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, 
quit you like men, be strong." 

Watch ye. This is a warning to 
watch out for danger, and the student 
has the choice of following vice or 
virtue. "I really pity the young fel- 
low who has gotten into the habit of 
staying away from the Y. M. C. A." 
Stand fast in the faith. In this critic- 
al period when starving out on new 
lines of thought there is great danger 
that the young man will break away 
from the faith that he is taught at his 
mother's knee. The old Greeks and

the Y. M. C. A. rooms. 

Joy reigned supremo and good fil- 
lowship was rife. Many pleasantries 
were passed between those present 
and the recountinsf of former "adven- 
tures" was certainly amusing to the 
extreme. The games of old were gono 
over and revised. Many excellent ad- 
dresses were given and the college 
songs and cht'crs were given again and 
again. 

The Rev. H. C. Michael, 'SG-'Og, pas-

ALUMNI 
There'.-, an cca.stacy in sitting 

By I lie fireside alone; 
When the evening shades have gather 
ed 

And the care.s of day have flown; 
There's a joy well nigh the blissful 

As upon the grate we gaze; 
To_beliold in ictro.sptjction 

Our Susquehanna days. 

There's a joy beyond description. 

Such as poets never penned, 
In the ever welcome handshake 

Of an Aliiia INIater friend : 
And there'.^ nothing so refreshing, 

Nothing quite so good as that; 
Wlien tlic greeting follows gayly 

With a Susquehanna chat. 

There are songs that thrill our being 
With an impulse most divine; — 

Glorious,hymns whose very echo 
Leave an impress most benign: 

But the one that stirs our heart 

St-iUIgS 

Till they echo loud and long 
Is the jolly, cheerful echo 
Of a Susquehanna song. 

There are men whoso very presence 

Seem to elevate our thought; 
Like llie noted ancient wisemcn 

To our lives they've incense brought: 
But when filled with gloom and sad- 
ness 

And we long for sudden joys. 
Then, oh then! for just a moment. 

With the Susquehanna boys! 

There are mansions, large and daz- 
zling 

Such as rich men call their home; 
Halls and corridors artistic 

Thru which men delight to roam: 
But ihe dearest of all buildings — 

Modern house or ancient halls — 
Is the little group of structures 

Within Susquehanna's walls. 

— H. C. MICHAEL '96. '99. 

WHICH COLLEGE? 

Only one man out of every three 
hundred and eighty-five who graduate 
at state Colleges and universitic? en- 
ters the Christian ministry; while ono 
in five of the graduates of the Church 
college does. You can almost count on 
your lingi'r.s our preaclu'is wlio come 
from state institutions; and in tho fu- 
ture we will look to them in vain to 
supply the church wih li:>aders. The 
Christian college has furnished three- 
fourths of our ministers; and it Is to 
them we must look for our supply of 
men. 

The church sliQuld give liberally for 
Christian education in order to provide 
for her future maintenance and wel- 
fare, by training efflcituit leadership. — 
Dr. Perry. 

Vice Presid'ent Marshall uttered a 
true statement not long since when he 
said, "The trouble with our American 
education is that it has in it too much 
materialistic science, and too little of 
God Almighty."

EDITORIAL COMMENT 
"What would you do if your team 
lost every same this year?" said one 
of the footl)all men a( -fi recent "pep" 
mef'tin?;. There's food for a bit of deep |^' 
thinking in that question. Not that 
anyl3ody imagines that our team is 
really poing to lose every game of the 
season, hut the query points the way 
to a truer realization of just what con- 
sistent loyalty is. But there isn't any 
need to say "consist'^nt loyalty" — 
loyalty implies consistency. How 
many of us are really and truly loyal 
to our team? Of course when the 
team wins, we can shout as loudly as 
the next one, yet when the eleven 
comes home defeated, don't, we some- 
times besln to "crab" and complain? 
That's not loyalty. Your "rooting" 
does not amount to anything if it is 
not as loud one moment as the next. 
But you might cheer for the team 
from the beginning of the season to 
the last game, and still not realize the 
farthest extent of which loyalty is 
capable. You must not only be a 
"rootcM," you must he a supporter as 
well. That means to offfr your serv- 
ices, to be out on the field or grand- 
stand whenever you can. It means 
"to talk up," to slap the fellows on the 
back, and wish them success, to let 
the team know you're with them all 
the time. 

The men out there on the field are 
working very, very hard for us and for 
our college. Even if they should lose 
every game it is our duty to stand by 
and loyally support them. But with 
true support, our team isn't going to 
lose. Thi- responsibility rests with all 
of us ior Iht^ success of the season. 
Who will be the chief booster?

PASSING OF SLEEPY HOLLOW 

At one time Susquehanna Tniversity 
was in need of a science building and 
a house was remodeled to serve the 
purpose. But the tinir' came v/hen 
Susquehanna got a iial Science Hall 
and the old one was no longer needed. 

But the student body had increased 
and more dormitory room was requir- 
ed and accordingly the building was 
converted into a dormitory and was 
called the Annex. Tradition states 
that in its early history it was known 
as Yawning Chasm but this was later 
superceded by the suggestive and ro- 
mantic name of Sleepy Hollow. 

And Sleepy Hollow it still is and 
hollower than ever. Lightef, warmer 
and more free from varmits, especial- 
ly those inhabitating beds. Sleepy 
Hollow was constantly in demand as 
preferable to the unpleasant and in- 
convenient condition of Selinsgrove 
Hall and the number of applicants for 
rooms in the former was even greater 
after Mr. Decker had installed a 
toilet and a hot water system. Since 
upperclassmen always have the pre- 
ference. Sleepy Hollow was the home 
of many illustrious seniors and juniors. 

The year '16-'17, opened with ten 
men in Sleepy Hollow, one junior, five 
sophs, three fresh, and one sub-fresh. 
The name of the house was voted 
worn out and a Greek dictionary Avas 
consulted to find the Greek equivalent, 
the initial letters of which were found 
to be Upsilom Kappa. Thus it became 
known as T'psilon Kappa House. War 
broke out ,and fraternity houses op- 
ened with the effect that the year '17- 
'18 opened without a man in Y. K. 
House. Selinsgrove Hall had been 
mufh improved in the remodeling and 
now surpasses Y. K. House as much 
as was the reverse the year before. 
And so Sleepy Hollow is deserted.

poor; and now stands balked but not 
dittai.d, ihe enemy of four-fifths of 
the worlj." — From President Wilson's 
Reply '0 the Pope. 



It was the scene of many a midnight 
feed. It witnessed many a ducking, 
numerous friendly bouts and frequent 
insignificant scraps. It was the cen 
ter from which the Sophs set out 
against the Freshmen and was like- 
wise the place of secret plots of the 
Freshmen. Within its walls preat 
quantities of sandwitches, pie, apples, 
ice cream, cider and tobacco were 
consumed. 

Under its floors are still concealed 
SOX, shoe tongues and handkerchiefs 
carried thither by rats or mice. It 
was here that Oscar was clipped and 
M^irkley was cared for after his shave. 
From here set ont the Death Crew 
to work their havoc on disobedient 
Fresh and untamed Soph. 

Its walls often re-echoed with the 
strains of soft music from niandolute, 
violin or guitar in accompaniment to 
songs of S. U. or Y. K. Many mid- 
nights witnesses some industrious 
student in Sleepy Hollow editing ma- 
terial for The Lanthorn, or The Sus- 
quehanna or pouring over the next 
day's lessons. Ever warm, cheery, 
light and convenient it is little wonder 
that its inmates were so devoted to 
it. 

And now, empty and desolate, it is a 
constant remindPr to us, ex-inhabi- 
tants, that our happy days of Y. K. 
are over and we wonder if others will 
ever have the .same good times. And 
we wonder, too, what will become of 
the building. Will it be converted 
into a temporary library; will it be 
remodeled and be made the equal of 
Selinsgrove Hall *in sanitation and 
beauty or will it be left is it is. Thus 
we wonder but we cannot help but 
realize that the days of the supremacy 
of the old house are over and watch 
with some regret the passing of Sleepy 
Hollow.— W. 1). A, 19, 

The Susquehanna hopes that the 
students will get into the habit of 
patronizing merchants who are ad- 
vertising in our columns. Their kind- 
ness to the college can be appreciated 
mighty well in this way. *

THE LUTHERAN MANUAL 

The Text Book of Lutheranism 

By JUNIUS B REMENJSNYDER, 

D. D., LL. D. 

Xhis is a book which will give 
you a thorough understanding of 
the doctrines, worship and gov- 
ernment of the Lutheran Church. 
Beginning with the name Luth- 
eran it discusses every import- 
ant feature of the Church and 
discloses a vision of our future 
here In America. 

Dr. Remensnyder, with his 
wonderful grasp of his subject, 
has explained and discussed 
these doctrines in such a way as 
to make them clear and interest- 
ing to everj'one.' 

We consider this book a vital 
necessity to every Lutheran.

FIELD SECRETARY NOTES 

Sunday, October 7, gave us the 
privilege of preaching in St. John's 
Church, Espy, Pa., whose active and 
devoted pastor Is the Rev. Harry W. 
Miller, a recent graduate from our 
Theological Department. There are 
three churches in the charge. Harvest 
Home was celebrated in the country 
churches, with pastor in charge, while 
we conducted the services in the 
town. We preached in the morning 
and gave our Luther lecture in the 
evening. The next day we visited and 
addressed the High School of Espy at 
its morning session and gave our Sus- 
quehanna lecture in the evening to the 
people of St. John. 

Tuesday evening we lectured on Sus- 
quehanna in the Hidlay Church of the 
Espy charge. Coming home that 
night the gasoline of the pastor's car 
became exhausted, and the two preach- 
ers enjoyed a hike of about two miles, 
leaving the car by the roadside to 
await attention in the morning. The 
walk did u.s good. 

Kednesday morning, pastor Miller, 
rnnvpycil ns in his car to West Ber- 
wick, where in the high school at the 
morning session we conducted the de- 
votional service and gave our sterc- 
opticon lecture on Susquehanna. I' 
was our great joy Wednesday even- 
ing in Berwick to attend and address 
the prayer meeting of Holy Trinity 
Church, Rev. C. S. Bottiger, pastor. 
We served Holy Trinity for more 
than nine years as pastor, and it is 
always a delight to meet the people of 
the charge. Brother Bottiger is a man 
of fine spirit and we feel perfectly at 
home among the dear people and with 
their good pastor. The church has 
done marvelous things since we left 
under the guidance of their new lead 
er. The new church bulldog is very 
beautiful and the congregation is hap- 
pily at work in all its departments. 
Thursday morning we lectured with

Under the present war conditions 
Susquehanna is facing what might be 
termed an "athletic famine." Every 
member of the 1916 football team is 
in some branch of the service so while, 
Susquehanna's measure of patriotism 
is heaping full yet it has torn an ex- 
tremely large hole in her various 
sports. 

Enrollment in all the departments 
of the uinversity is much lower than 
heretofore and as a result the athletic 
association has fewer members which 
means a very marked decrease in the 
amount of money coming in from the 
fees. 

In view of this lack of material and 
money the board decided to discon- 
tinue basketball and possibly baseball 
for this season, rather than go farther 
in debt and still not have a winning 
team. The proposition was placed be- 
fore the student body Thursday morn- 
ing and they unanimously sustained 
the board in its action. 

In place of Varsity basketball a 



In view of the fact that help in al- 
most all lines of work is scarce, and 
men that are willing to work are hard 
to find, the Y. M. C. A. cabinet in their 
last meeting decided to open an em- 
ployment bureau. / 

There are many young men at Sus- 
quehanna, who are working their way 
thru college, that would be glad to 
work a fe-^ hours a day or on Satur- 
days or at whatever time they would 
have an opportunity. We have relia- 
ble men that w^e can send out and 
know that they will do satisfactory 
work. We have men hero, who have 
come from the farm, from the office, 
and many other lines of work, who are 
waiting to go out and do their bit, in 
order that they may gain an education. 

The Y. M. C. A. has grasped the op- 
portunity where it can render more 
service to the young men, who are 
striving to u.';e up every idle moment 
and make their lives worth while. 
Also to be of service to those who are 
looking for young men to do their

PHILO 

Philo Literary Society mot in regu- 
lar session on last Friday evening in 
Philo Hall. There was a good au- 
dience to witness the program and the 
presence of many new students was 
an encouragement to the old ones to 
continue their efforts and keep Philo 
to her high standard of usefulness. 
The society voted to receive Miss 
Penny, Messrs. Faust, Mollar and 
Swanger, as active members and these 
persons were duly initiated. The 
program followed. An essay by Miss 
Woodruff was well rt'ceived and Mr. 
Wm. Decker delightfully entertained 
with a declamation. Miss Dorothy 
Rearick ably substituted for Miss Lulu 
Fetterolf in the original oral ion class. 
A cornet solo by SpeiRelmire was a de- 
lightful variation in the program and 
an encore was required before the 
class was closed. Cassler read the 
current news and the select reading 
was read by Miss Jane Potsford sub 
stituting Miss Christine Schoch. 



wards for individual efforts. Special 
features will be added to these games 
as attractions and announcements 
will be made later when all plans are 
worked out. 

The girls team which was so suc- 
cesful last year will be continued and 
some interesting games are slated. 

Such drastic actions quite a bomb 
throwi^ into the Susquehanna camp, 
but 'was decided by those, who 
probably know inside conditions bet- 
ter than the ones who may critisise 
the action, that such a step was the 
one and only sane move to make in 
view of existing circumstances. 



series of intcrclass games will be ar- \ work, whatever it may be. In this 
ranged with silver cups and also re- j way the young man will be helped in 

finding his work and the employer will 
be helped in finding the man he wants. 
No matter how small the job may be, 
someone will be helped and will ap- 
preciate it. No matter what kind of 
work it may be, if you have anything 
you want done, just let us know and 
we will help you to find the man you 
want. No fees will be charged. When 
you inquire for help state what kind 
of work, rate, and what kind of a man 
you prefer.

The Measure of Manhood 
The standard om manhood's 

strength alone, 
It isn't a measure of Sinue and Bone: 
Your brain and your brawn aren't 

worth thirty cents, 
H you don't go on with the things you 

commence. 
Reward's for the plodder, the bulldog 

jawed fellow. 
Who never turns blue and who never 

gets yellow, 
Who learns how to suQer without 

help or bellow 
And smiles all the while as he faces 

his trials- 
Success is far more than a matter of 

wit; 
It can't be achieved without courage 

and grit. 
The meeting last Tuesday was in 
the hands of the students. Brief ad 
dresses were given by Greninger, 
Janson and Brown. Shoaf then brot 
up the business and outlined the plan 
of campaign. A very profitable even- 
ing was spent. 

Wednesday evening after the close 
of the campaign the boys gathered In

ery student to attend to this matter at

the rooms for a social time. Several 
musical selections and readings were 
given by the fellows after which a 
lunch was served. Miggs entertained 
for a while with some humorous 
stories which were well received. This 
social gathering brought the members 
together for a sociable evening and is 
only one of many which will be held 
thruout the year. 

At our next meeting the Rev. Chas. 
Bowers will be present and address 
us. He is a very able speaker and is 
sure to have a message well worth 
while. 

In this world of dust and clay, 
Why not work and pray, 
God may need you, 
Why sit still and idly play. 
Begin to think and never shirk, 
God's chosen duty for you; 
Bear the toil, endure the pain, 
And heaven youll richly gain. 



One grand success. . . Those are the 
only words to fully explain the Y. M. 
C. A. membership campaign last 
Wednesday. Every student is now a 
member or the association. 

Immediately after the chapel serv- 
ices wore over last Wednesday morn- 
ing Dr. Manhart turned the assembly 
over lo the Y. ^l. C. A. and after a 
spicy talk by Professor Brungart the 
campaign teams took charge. Each 
student was interviewed and as his 
consent was secured his name was cal- 
led out and placed on the honor list in 
the front of the room. 

In less than fifteen minutes nearly 
all the male students and the faculty 
had expressed their willingness lo 
join. When the assembly was dismis- 
sed the teams started after those who 
had not yet become members and bo- 
fore noon all were enrolled. 

The Y. M. C. A. is now fully or- 
ganized and ready for work. Witli 
the hearty cooperation of all the mem- 
bers the Y. M. C. A. will boom. A

CLIO 

Regular meeting of the Clionian 
Literary Society, held Friday evening, 
October 19, was an excellent demon- 
stration of the spirit and zeal that is 
invested in the members of this 
society. 

The hall was filled to its extrem- 
ity and an excellent program was ren- 
dered. Mr. Bastian read an essay. 
after which Mr. Janson gave a hum- 
orous oration in which he demonstrat- 
ed a number of different languages. 

The debate: "Rtpolved that Preach- 
ers ought to be Married," was ably 
supported on the ailirmativi' by the> 
Messrs. Middlesworth and Shannon, 
on the negative by Brov.n and Ard. 
The judges decided in favor of the 
affirmative. 

I'lano duets wero rendered by the 
Misses Smith and Steininger, following 
wTiich was a select oration by Shadel. 
Pupeitfus was chosen extempore by 
the president and gave some very sug- 
gestive ideas on "Clio and her work as 
inducive to noble .sentiments." 

Clio has been very successful in the 
solicitation of new members. To the 
present time twenty-two new mem- 
bers have been aCQliated with this so- 
ciety. In addition to which three oth- 
er names have been proposed. 



Several social meetings will be held 
and the year will be one of the pieas- 
autest. Considerable deputation work 
is being planned as well as various 
other religious activities. The new 
feature of the Y. M. C. A. will be the 
employment bureau which has been 
instituted to help the students who de- 
sire work to get it. 

This year ought to be a banner year 
for the organization. With a full 
membership and the good manage- 
ment of the cabinet there is no doubt 
about the success of this year's work. 



Once more Susquehanna had to boar 
the shame of a defeat when last Sat- 
urday Mount Carmel came to Selins- 
grove and put it over us to the amount 
of 21-6. Tlio our boys played hard and 
earnestly the visitors were too much 
and the game ended with them on the 
long end of the score. 

Mount Carmel was the first to score 
when after a series of lino plunges 
they took the ball over near the end 
of the first quarter. The try at goal 
was successful and the quarter ended 
with the score 7-0 in their favor. In 
the second quarter Susquehanna came 
back strong and a successful pass by 
Pendergast to Janson secured a touch- 
down. Pcndergast failed to kick goal. 
Botli teams wore unable to score furth- 
er during the half and it ended 7-6. 

Soon after the last half started, 
Pendergast was injured and had to 
bwve the game. He had been hurt 
several times before but was unv.-illinS 
to leave. Without him the team seem- 
ed to have lost their pep for two more 
touchdowns were secured but the goal 
kicks were unsuccessful. A bad pass 
by centre caused a safety which 
brought the score to 21. 

Bit-idta 'he iujuricH v.iiich Pender- 
gast 1 pceived, several others were also 
hurt. Shannon and Cole had to leave 
ihe game and other minor hurts were 
reecived. 

Tho we lost, yet our boys deserve a 
lot of credit for staying with the game 
and helping thru the season. It is 
much better to have a team tho it be a 
losing one than to go thru without one. 
It will tide us over till next year when 
we expect to be able to put a first class 
team on the field, one which will be a 
great credit to tho instituion. 



AMPLY REPAID 

Germany spent millions of money 
in this country for "slush" purposes 
and all it got was a declaration of 
war that in the end is going to mean 
its finish. America will repay that 
money with compound interest.

most important factors in the de-

IT CAN BE DONE 

Somebody said it couldn't be done, 

But he with a chuckle replied, 
That maybe it couldn't, but ho would 
be one 
Who wouldn't say so till he tried. 
So ho buckled right in with a trace 
of a grin 
On his face; if he worried he hid it. 
He started to sing as he tackled tho 
thing 
That couldn't bo done, and lie did it. 

Somebody scoffed, "Oh you'll never do 
that, 
At lea.st no one over has done it." 
But ho took off his coat, and ho took 
off his hat, 
And the finst think wo knew he'd 
begun it. 
With a lilt of his chin and a bit of a 
grin, 
Without any doubling or quidit. 
He started to sing as he tackled tho 
thing 
That couldn't lie done, and ho did It. 

There are thousands lo tell you it can- 
not be done, 
There are thousands to prophesy 
failure;

AMBITION AND SUCCESS 

Ambition is the motor power of life. 
Whatever any lyan is engaged in, am- 
bition is necessary to goad him on. 
There are obstacles everywliore that 
must lie ovoi'come; tlierc^ is work to 
do, hard v»ork. There is no such thing 
as being l)orn witli a silver spoon in 
the mouth, or playing one's way into 
so called success and achievement 
wherever there is achievement, wlier- 
ever a great natne looms up in his- 
tory, look lor work, thought, energy, 
ambition. 

We start out in life witli great vis- 
ions of the future, ideals of our future 
greatness, dreams of the ce niim 
honors. But as the years pass on, dJs- 
appointjnont creep.'? in. Especially is 
this true of the intellectual life. 

Hoping and enthusiastic wil the stu-< 
dent start on his "care.er." He will 
mak(> the world i- cognize him, make it 
realize that a new power has entered 
upon this sphere, "lli' ha.-3 a;?nira- 
tions of limitless space" of boundless 
renown; his ideas are far above in the 
skies. Time goes on and the reaction 
sets in. Truth lies deep, and r(>cn!ires 
nnuli labor, arduous labor, to bring 
but a few nuggets of this jirecious 
metal to light, and then it is oft<~n 
very dross. Tlie v.orker begins to 
question: Why? What for? To what 
purpose? What's the use? He begins 
to examint' his powers and to maki^ 
some bitter discoveries. It begins to 
dawn upon him that ho, tremlding 
with the fires of boundless ambition, 
yet is hindered l)y the slough of mor- 
ality, is hampered in his aspirations, 
has but a fi'W years to live, but a 
short span of time to do his work, to 
accomplish his purposes and reach his 
ideals. He is tied and fettered by 
his own mean being: he is bound by a 
nut.shell. The sldff is little and th.- 
sea is l)ig. "He st niches toward 
ideal beauty, and impolently they fall 
back at thp coniaet of our clay and 
morality." 

The realization of these sad facts 
discourages, often embitters him. He 
begins to question whether it matters 
how the farce plays out, ju«t so it is 
played quickly. He sees nothing in 
life but the dull routine; eat, work, 
sleep, and then sleep, work, eat— one 
continual round of dullness and fruit- 
less energy. Still there is that 
consciousness of strength and power, 
the will to do, the wish to become, 
perhaps even the joy of having done. 
On he goes once more to try again. 
Perhaps he can still achieve and gain 
success against such handicaps; per 
haps, the mere ruins may be fitted 
out beautifully. Oth<'r obstacles then 
obstruct the way, other disillusions 
come. He finds that an awful, dead- 
ening weariness overtakes him at 
times, he is tired of all. He will drop 
out of the race disgusted; he would 



1, 

slop, his hopes are snapped. So often 
he is about to dispair of all, and still 
the energy, the life power, and am- 
bition goad him on and drive him; 
the thirst will be slaked. There is 
but little satisfaction in it for him. 
Doe.s not the multitude sneer, and 
mapy a passerby reward him with a 
pitying or deriding smile? Are there 
not other things that satisfy more? 
He could he a demigog in society, be- 
come th(^ fashion of the upper classes, 
loung(> away his days in Idleness and 
enjoyment and pleasures as his | 
friends do. How often have they not ! 
tried to lead him from the' path that [ 
leads to the city he is trying to reach, j 
and onl.v the occasional glimpses of 
the spires afar off suddenly Hashing 
thru the circling clouds haA'^e kept him 
on his journey. But alas! too soon the 
vapors closed again over the beautiful 
vision. And so he goes on, unsatisfied 
riud bittpr, on the one hand liis al- 
mighty ambition, on the other the limi- 
tations of his being, convinced that 
"man plods his ways thru thorns to 
ashes," and that 

We -wiither from our youth, we gasp 

away — ■ 
Sick — Sick—; unfound the boon, un- 

slacked the thirst, 
Though to the last, in verge of oui 

decay. 
Some phantom lures such as v.i 

sought at fust — 
But all too late. So we are doubly 

cursed, 
Love, fame, ambition, a\arice, 'lis the 

same— 
Eath idle, and all ill, and none the 

V, orst. 
For all are meteors with a different 

name, 
-And dealli the sable smoke, where 

vanished the flame. 

Such is the character of intellectual 
life. Where is the solution? Tfoheri 
Browning deals with this probleni 
very much. Dealing with the soul, 
the individual soul, he takes into con- 
sideration man's power and his limitr 
tions, his ambitions and his pooi 
achievements, his ideals and their un- 
satisfactory pursuits, his aspiration to 
soar to heavon with waxen wings. He 
has also a solution for it all. The 
worker should not despair. The 
present world is not his proper sphere. 
Its a world out of joint. His energy 
and soul i»ower are too liig and largi^ 
for his cramped surroudings, and only 
the future^ life will and must bring a 
full realization, with adequate results 
and satisfaction for his energies. The 
present world is hut a pi'oparation for 
the future, and only by taxing his 
powers to the limit does the worker do 
bis duty as ne ought. To choke and 
stifle this vital energy to drop out of 
the race were base and ignoble. Both 
paths lead to failurees fut the one to 
a magnificent and noble, the other To 
a hitter moan, and shameful failure. 

For this solution, ^^hicll Browning 
brings in very many of his poems he 
has always been an inspiration to in- 
tellectual workers. And there truly 
does lie a truth orthy wto he remem- 
bered. Men look for success, and 
often seek it in the vain flattery of 
newspapers and magazines, in the 
homage of an ignorant and easily de- 
ceived public, in the cheers and vile 
adulation of the masses. Yet it is not 
success. Crowds gather as readily to 
see a induntebank as to see an angel 
from heaven. It may be sign of suc- 
cess, a really merited praise of un- 
stinted efforts. True success lies in 
the pursuit, in untiring, unflagging en- 
ergy and power put into ones work. 
Life is a continual trying again, and 
true success is the rising of the 
Phoenix from the ashes of disoppoint- 
ment and failures to an ever renewing 
of the life energies and ambitions.

THE REFORMATION 

in Principle and Action 

Rev. Sanford N. Carpenter, D.D. 
Former Instructor Carthage Col. 

'The Reformation in Principle 
and Action is different from the 
common run of books on the sub- 
ject of tlie Reformation. . . This 
is an up-to-date history of the 
Reformation. Its modernity ap- 
pears time and again notably 
m the references to the present 
world war. . . But its modernity 
is not the only feature which 
makes this book different. The 
word Reformation in the title 
comnrehends the entire Protest- 
ant Reformation. . . The reader 
may not tarry long with any 
one person or at any one place, 
but before he leaves on# country 
and stens over into another, he 
hns had a close and elear sur- 
vev of the relieious nollticaiand 
serial life of the rountiv he 1nst 
left." — Lutheran Church Visitor.

cial and religious conditions. ' 

The book is well arranged and writ- 
ten in a manner that is easily un- 
derstood. The important things jn the 
history, laws and conditions in the 
state are taken up and explained in 
a very concise manner. 

Its chapters treat on the following

GovernniPrtt, Military Affairs, Man- 
ners and Customs, State Finance, Re-

JOTS AND OLOTS FROM 
THE COLLEGE CfliOS 

Will these heavy frosts take some 
of the green out of these Freshmen? 



Be sure and take your cameras 
with you on your hikes and get some 
pictures for the Lanthorn. 



Well, its the same old story, Char- 
! lotte and Erny or Erny and Charlotte 
"Das wird noch was verdun." 



Why not start another "Bachelor's 
Club"? It may relieve the financial 
depression and also keep the girls 
from feeling slighted if they haven't 
a date. 



How conceited we are — when our 
names do not appear in print we 
grumble and when they do we feel 
hurt— (in public) — but down in our 
hearts we are pleased. 



Some people are naturally good na- 
tured and others are naturally witty 
but the members of the staff can't be 
both at the same time so if you have 
a pun give it to some member of the 
staff and if you have a kick do the 
same. 



Don't be selfish or a toghtwad when 
you have finished reading the Susque- 
hanna. Put on. a stamp and send it to 
your high school friends for they will 
like to read it and at the same time 
you are helping the college boost and 
everyone will boost with you. 



If you don't like the way this paper 
is run don't knock but come to the 
staff and make your complaint, for 
they are always ready to listen even 
tho they don't always take it. 



One more man is now in the lists 
for the hand of one of our fair stu- 
dents. A four sided duel is soon to 
be fought and the bets are on Neidig. 



Chestnuts seem to be getting ex- 
pensive, especially to a dozen Fresh- 
men. 



Everyone likes to have their picture 
taken, so go over to Science Hall next 
week and have it done. 



REVERIES OF A BACHELOR 

Stop not, Loiter not. Look not back- 
ward, if you would be among the fore- 
most. The great Now — so quick, so 
broad, so fleeting — is yours; in an 
hour it will belong to the eternity of 
the Past. The Temper of Life is to be 
made good by big honest blows; 
stop striking and you will do nothing; 
strike feebly and you will do almost 
as little; Success rides on every 
hour; grapple it and you win; but 
without a grapple it wull never go 
with you. Work is the weapon of 
honor, and who lacks the weapon will 
never triumph. 



OUR FIFTY-EIGHTH YEAR OF SERVICE 

We are entering our fifty-ninth season of business. PERFECT 
SERVICE in furnishing Costumes for plays is still our watch-word. 
Our Academic Cap and Gown department gladly quotes rental or sel- 
ling rales. A request will bring you a copy of our latest Costume 
Catalogue Number 59. 



WAAS & SON, 



PHILADELPHIA, PA. 



The one tinn' when a fellow feels 
he ought to be let down easy is when 
he is hard up. 



All that glitters isn't gold but lots of 
people are quite satisfied with tinsel. 

IT CAN BE DONE 

(Continued from First Page) 
There are thousands to point out to 
you one by one. 
The dangers that wait to assail you; 
But just buckle right in with a bit of 
a grin. 
Then take off your coat and go to it, 
Just start in to sing as you tackle the 
thing 
That cannot be done, and you'll do it.

LOSE 10 
LOCK HAVEN NOiAL 



IN SPIRITED GAME SUSQUEHAN- 
NA DEFEATED BY NORMAL- 
GREAT IMPROVEMENT SHOWN 




Being unable to get together in the 
first part of the game, Susquehanna 
Informals lost to Lock Haven Normal 
on Saturday 18-7. Our team showed 
better form than in previous games 
and had it not been for their weakness 
in the first quarter the score would 
have undoubtedly been reversed. 

Normal won the toss and Susque- 
hanna kicked off. By large gains 
around ends and several line plunges 
Lock Haven secured their first touch- 
down during the first few minutes c> 
the game. They were unsuccessful in 
thPir attempt to kick goal. Susque- 
hanna received and made first down 
by plunges. Bastian then carried the 
ball around right end for 20 yards. 
The ball was being pushed further and 
further into Lock Haven's territory 
when a fumble gave them the ball. 
Ganiposky then made a spectacular 
run of sixty yards after dodging thru 
the entire line securing another touch- 
down. Normal again failed to kick 
goal and just as we received the half 
was over. 

In the second half our men came 
back strong and by a long forward 
to Warner and large line plunges soon 
advanced the ball to Lock Haven's 5 
yard line. Ent plunged thru for a 
iouchdown and Captain Janson kicked 
goal. During the third quarter Shoaf 
broke thru the Normal line and block- 
ed a kick, Schadel secured the ball 
and made a large run with it. Sus- 
quehanna advanced to their ten yard 
line when a costly fumble gave the 
opponents the ball. During the remain- 
ing part of the game we were unable 
to score. The line-up:

Last Wednesday evening at "eight 
o'clock there occured one of the jol- 
liest parties of the season when the 
Y. W. C. A. cabinet entertained the 
girls at at "kid party." The invita- 
tions were given for the girls to for- 
get their age and dignity and remem- 
ber the games they enjoyed as chil- 
dren. Promptly at eight o'clock — be- 
cause children are always prompt to 
a party — the girls assembled in the 
art studio in the basement of Seibert 
Hall, which had been decorated for the 
occasion and then the fun began. One 
little boy was not old enough to attend 
a party alone so his grandma had to 
bring him. Of course she could not 
walk very fast so they were a few 
minutes late but after they arrived at 
the parly grandma must have forgot- 
ten her age for she played games with 
the children and didn't seem to mind 
being old at all. Anyone looking in 
at the windows would have declared 
it was play hour at a kindergarten. 
There were children wearing rumpers, 
children wearing bloomers, children 
with socks, and some of the boys were 
so impolite as to forget to remove 
their car" The littl" girls all had 
their hair freshly curled and they look- 
ed as if their nurses just got them 
ready for the party. The boys were 
proud of their girls and of course 
tried to show off fo the benefit of 
their own particular girl who pre- 
tended not to notice but she didn't 
mist* much just the same. All the 
games which children enjoy were 
played and several contests were held 
and prizes, which would please the 
kids were given to those winning the 
contests. There were several tables 
filled with games at one end of the 
room and these also were made use of 
by the children. After they tired of 
the games the most important part of 
the party to children — and perhaps to 
others too — was announced. The chil- 
dren were all invited to come into a 
room just off from the scene of the 
party and refreshments suitable to the 
occasion and supposed age of the chil- 
dren were served. Soon after this the 
party broke up because of course chil- 
dren are not expected to stay late at 
a party. The opinion of the girls 
seemed to be that this was a very 
novel and delightful way of entertain- 
ing and everyone reported a jolly, 
good time.

At the regular meeting of the Y. M.

Captain John A. S. Schoch, battalion 
adjutant, 107 Field Artillery, Camp 
Hancock, Ga., sent The Times this 
week the current issues of The Regi- 
mental Reveille, a journal published 
in the interests of the personnel of 
the organization. 

The feature of the first issue, off the 
press a fortnight ago, was an article 
by Maj. Rees and Capt. Schoch, giv- 
ing the history of the 107th. 

A highlight in the t^i cond issue was 
a sermon by Lieut, Burleigh A. Pet- 
ers, Susquehanna alumnus and athlete, 
who is chaplain of the organization. 
Lieut. Peters* admonition was to 
keep body and mind clean, and" was 
forcefully brought out in these words : 

"In the midst of our intensive train- 
ing for the gigantic struggle across the 
sea, it behooves each and every soldier 
in our regiment to think and ponder 
over our present position. 

"We are at war — we have voluntari- 
ly given our services to our beloved 
country. We have fdt the constant 
pull on our hearts — when our country 
was placed in a stf.te of belligerency 
to go shoulder our part of the national 
responsibility in order that our friends 
and loved ones at home might be pro- 
tected and their liberty made safe. We 
heard the call io uftiy and obeyed it. 
Now it is for us as men, soldiers and 
countrymen to so live that we can ac- 
count for our actions not only hero in 
camp, but in foreign service as well, 
in a creditable manner. 

"Are we really comprehending our 
serious mission of duty and service? 
Have we been living, while here in 
camp, with an expectation of receiving 
orders to return home soon? Have we 
thought this is a duplicate of Mexican 
border s.rvice? In other words, have 
wi> rt-ulizid the seriousness of it all? 
If we haven't. It is high time to begin. 

"To render efficient service to all 
concerned we must be men of good 
physical caliber. Very truly have we 
been examined by medical doctors and 
have been pronounced sound and 
"sane," but that doesn't say we will 
always remain in that condition. The 
fact of the matter is we must con- 
stantly be taking care of ourselves so 
that we can withstand the stress and 
strain "over there." 

"It doesn't say, boys, that even if 
we do possess a sound body we are 
privileged to dissipate in all manner 
and form, thereby undermining the 
very foundation of our healthful bod- 
ies whence cometh our service to our 
countiy. We must be men, every inch 
men. 

"But the physical part of man does 
not alone constitute a real man. He 
must be a moral man and his moral- 
ity must depend upon his spirituality 
to be of any avail in the battles of 
life. In other words, a man must do 
right and live right because It Is his 
honest conviction deduced from Di- 
vine truth— <Jod's Word. 

"We have entered the service be- 
cause It was our honest conviction 
that it was our duty and responsibility. 
This will In all probability be better 
for us to fight, but It's our conviction 
that we ought to fight them. Hence, 
our preparation for efficient service to 



Walter's barn near Doglown was* the 
scene of reveling last Tliursday even- 
ing when the Juniors held a barn 
dance there. It was one of those 
nights you read about in book.'?, a 
silvery moon, a gentle breeze, etc., oh 
yes, it was great. Well anyway, the 
jolly Juniors departed for the scene 
of activity about 7 p.m. under the 
cnaperonage of Mr. and Mr.s. T. H. 
Speigelmire and Mrs. J. I. Wood- 
ruff. The barn was decorated with 
corn fodder, and other autumnal dec- 
orations and cider flowed in abund- 
ance until Pappy got on the job, and 
then, well, it disappeared rather niy.s 
teriously. The evening was spent in 
playing old-fashioned games. Songs 
were not absent either as Jess and 
Chris rendered several beautiful se- 
lections. Schadel demonstrated his 
aljility at barn dancing, in fact he 
was a regular Vernon Cassel. Mum 
Seel, always .surrounded by a bevy of 
admiring girls had an immense time 
while Scrooge and Speig were at 
swords points over some affair which 
all understand. Pie, cake, apples, and 
more cider were served after every- 
one was tired. Soon i[terw?.rds tb'^ 
bunch started home, but not as a 
bunch for somehow they seemed to go 
in pairs. Scrooge, however, was some- 
what peeved since he was with the 
largest crowd going home, a crowd of 
three. From later reports we hear 
that everyone arrived home safely al- 
tho several were sick the following 
day and among these was Pappy. Oh, 
yes, Bastian reports a good time. 



(Concluded at foot of next column) 



(Continued from preceding Column) 
assure us the desired objective. Why 
not apply the same battles, the same 
preparation today, to assure us the 
victory when all earthly battles have 
been waged and we lay down our 
lives? 

"This question is of no little import, 
both to officers and men. Our friends 
back home look upon us aa being 
loyal to our nation and so we are; but 
are we loyal to that higher democracy, 
God's nation? Are we willing to obey 
the call to duty from God and to rally 
around His flag of truth and righteous- 
ness as we do to our beloved "Old 
Glory"? If we are, we are not only 
assuming a dual responsibility, but al- 
so bringing comfort and cheer to our 
fathers, mothers, wives, sweethearts 
and friends back home who are vitally 
interested in us. 

"Let us repair our old ship, if it has 
been neglected, and sail out proudly 
on life's sea under the two grand old 
flags'-olir God'a and our Nation's."

The nisht of Octoboi- 2 1rli, brought 
forth wonderful realizations to the 
jolly cla.'^s of '21. As tlio cvining 
stars began to twinkle in ihc sky and 
the pale duskness of an autumn ev- 
ening cast its shadow over the earth, 
the moon pi}oiing out occa.'^ionally 
from behind ihe clouds, threw it.g 
beams of light upon a band of stu- 
dents ably chaperoned by Mrs. Aver 
and Plot'. ICiiixr, quietly stealing 
away from the campus of old Susque- 
hanna, and making their way to a spot 
where all bad bet'ii jirepared for an 
evening of happiiii ss and bliss. 

While the disappointed victims of 
fate plodded their weary way over the 
haunted rartli, and gazed upon tho 
place of nioirim'.'iit with down-cast 
and envious heart, there could be 
heard strange sounds, such as tho oc- 
casional gruff of a "Ijcar" caused by 
a sudden downpour of rain, and as if 
by reecho came the low Ijut. omnious 
grown of the "wolf" as it paced to 
and fro, as if to protect the hall, half 
concealing the outbursts of merriment, 
which only Freshmen know how to 
make; not that those within whose 
valor has been iested unu proven upon 
a previous occasion might be benefit- 
ted, but that the wolls themselves, of 
that good old banquet room, might be 
guarded from the penetrating blows 
of the envious ax or the penetrating 
glance of a would-be evil doer. 

It was indeed a night of strangness, 
spooky with uncanny tread of ghosts 
and goblins, and the hideous gleam of 
jock-o-lanterns squinting from neath 
the shadows of a corn shock, looked 
upon a band of meni'makers, from 
whom there constantly arose peals of 
laughter. 

And as if caused by this truly ro- 
mantic night there seemed to be instil- 
led in the hearts of those present, that 
spirit of romaiioi- whiiu bi-aiiH loith 
.'. .irds of love and undying affection.

awakening dawn, back to the scenes 
alread> dear to their hearts. 



HEALTH NOTES 
By The Physical Director 
Always take a bath after daily ex- 
ercise, three minutes for the bath, five 
minutes for a vigorous rubbing. Do 
not wait for the water to cool before 
taking the bath, as it should be taken 
immediately after exercise, when the 
body is warm and perspirii ,:■ Tho 
water should be tepid, b it it Is es-

COLLEGE WAR SERVICE 

Perhaps the most generous of all 
the gifis of young manhood to the war 
Is coming from colleges. The students 
of America are responding in measure 
unequniled by any other class of citi- 
the call of patriotism, 
drain upon the student body," 
New York daily that has been 
investigating the fall enrollment in 
the colleges, "is disproportionately 
greater than upon any other class or 
set of young men." At eastern and 
middle western colleges it finds a re- 
duction of ten to fifty per cent in at- 
tendance. This ratio doubtless hold.'? 
for other parts of the country as well. 
This first-if-all offer of service, this 
risk of health and future and life by 
college men, this first rush of the 
keenest and most promising of the 
,..-,„„„ i:rp jjj ^Yic nation, at this hour 

crisis, may well give a sen.se 
and satisfaction to the col- 
. the country, coupled tho it 
soon must be with cutting sorrow. 

It was so in Canada; it was so in 
France and England. From the high 
ideals of college life came the most 
>!pontaneous, perhaps the most gen- 
erous of all human gifts to the cause 
of world democracy. 

Who, then, has so great, so natural 
a responsibility to ask that this gen- 
erou.s offering of young manhood shall 
be properly conserved? That its 
services shall he the greatest possible? 
That the sacrifices abroad shall not 
be handicapped and weakened at 
home? 

Who has so direct an interest in the 
preventing of waste at home — especial- 
ly the supreme waste of wastes mo 
unnecessarv, avoidable, vic'^as des- 
truction of producing manhood, caus- 
ed by thf liquor trofDc? It is not mere- 
ly an economic waste, or a waste of 
producing capacity that comes from 
the age-old narcotic grip of this in- 
stitution on every-day life — it is a 
waste of the nation's moral strength 
in the face of a world conflict. 

Upon what class in America does 
the duty of standing clear-cut for pro- 
hibition come with such force at this 
time as upon the colbges and college 
students who understand, as many oth- 
er classes do not, the strength that 
comes from clean life at homo while 
its armies are fighting abroad. 

The prohibition movement comes 
closer home, now, to the student 
tlian it did last year. It is more per- 
sonal whether he lives in dry terri- 
tory or wet; it is more immediate, 
more vital to him and his interests. 
For he who remains in college — she 

ho remains in college— must consid- 
■r the possibility, the probability of 
it is cuilege friend, trained in clean 
army camps and kept by military regu- 
liition from drink in our own cities, 



meeting a new "social compulsion" to 
drink, as they go abroad, such as has 
never been known in college life. 

To keep strong tlie demand for li- 
(luor banishment so as to give popular 
support to the clTorls of army, navy, 
Y. M. C. A. and other leaders who are 
striving to satrguard the clean life of 
the men wlio go abroad, to insist on 
war prohibition so as to save food and 
men resources, to push strongly for 
national prohibition as a suggestion 
and example to the P^uropean allies of 
Canada and the United States, to be 
ready to express in behalf of the col- 
leges of America one united voice in 
support of tU,e National Prohibition 
Amendment,' when again it comes up 
in Congress, to "fill up the ranks" in 
local, state, and national prohibition 
service in place of those who are go 
ing abroad, and make good at home 
while they arc offering life on the bat 
tie line in France is the new respon- 
sibility brought by the war to the 
college students who remain in college 
this eventful year of 1917-18.

THE GREAT WORLD WAR 

This is absorbing the greatest pos- 
sible attention of our people, for its 
proper prosecution and successful 
termination means more to us and the 
whole world of nations than anything 
else. 

We firmly believe that this terri- 
ble international struggle will mark 
the end of conditions that thrust this 
world slaughter on unprepared nations 
and which have shed so much innocent 
blood — even of women and children. 

However, under the providence of 
God, we can see a world tranquility 
and peace among nations, as the direct 
outcome of this confiagration that 
shall bless future generations to al- 
mos an unbelievable degree. 

This war has made most of the 
world dry, and if it should give us 
aproximate disarmament international 
blessings almost undreamed of would 
flow from it. 

"Outlawry" among nations cannot 
exist in the future anymore than any 
where else in civilized countries. 

The world is learning some dear and 
expensive lessons — but nations are 
likely to treat each other more like 
brothers and as equals where national 
rights are concerned.

"The Reformation in Principle

is an up-to-date history of the

makes this book different. The

may not tarry long with any

Y. M. C. A. 

All those who attended the meeting 
of the Y. M. C. A. last Tuesday even- 
ing, were amply repaid in hearing the 
address of Chaplain B. A. Peters, who 
graduated from Susquehanna Theo- 
logical Seminary last Juiie. 

Rev. Peters has given his life in 
service to his country, and finds en- 
joyment in that beautiful and helpful 
service that he renders to his fellow 
men in finding their Savior and giving 
better service to their country. 

All the mail of his company is in 
his charge, also the supply rooms. He 
must keep an individual record of 
each man, so that he can be identified 
in case of death. Beside this work 
he ha.s a mutli greater work, and that 
is looking after the morals of the 
camp. He sighted instances where he 
had personal talks with many men 
of his company, changing their views 
of life from tliat of a rough life to a 
clean, pure and nobler one, thus help- 
ing them to find a comforter and 
guidt ; Jesus Christ. 

He said that all the men in the 
army are not rough, but those that are 
should not be looked down upon, but 
we should help them and try to makt' 
them better men. Christ did not go 
to those alone that did not need Him, 
but he helped the worst of sinners as 
well. 

He tried to impi-ess us that it pays 
to live a clean and pure life, and to 
build character that will stand the 
test, no matter whether wo are in 
college, in the army or wherever wo 
are. 

Our country Is calling for men like 
Rev. Peters, who are willing to give 
their lives, that they may help the men 
who are unsaved, to find the Savior be

day School, and it was a delight to 
share in the inspiring exeicises and 
to witness the zeal and interest of the 
people. We preached in the morning 
and afternoon, and lectured on Luther 
and Susquehanna in the evening. 
There v/as much interest in our pic- 
tures, and much interest in the cause 
of our dear old school. Susquehan- 
na has certainly some loyal friends in 
the charge. We have some of our best 
students from this town and the sur- 
rounding country, and others are on 
the way to become students in the 
future. 

A visit to the Milroy high school 
Monday morning will never be forgot- 
ten. Principal Morgan assembled all 
the students for an address, and af- 
terward gave us opportunity of meet- 
ing members of the senior class in- 
terested in college. There is no honor 
that .we appreciate so much, nor op- 
portunity that we seek so diligently, 
as that of speaking to our young 
friends in high school and in college. 
We lectured Monday evening in our 
church at Siglerville, the second 
church of Brother Lubold's charge. 
We visited Milroy nearly twenty 
years ago as we were finishing our 
coyrse at Susquehanna. Two Sundays 
in succession were spent in the pretty 
town, and the people would have made 
us pastor then had we not felt that 
Northumberland was our place of 
work. Pastor Lubold referred to us as 
Rip VanWinkle returning after twenty 
years to view the scenes of long ago. 
We feel not a little like poor old Rip, 
with this exception— that whereas his 
friends were all gone, ours had mulit- 
plied many fold. 

Tuesday found us away down in 
Y'ork County, with Rev. C. H. Shull, 
where we are assisting in a series of 
services that will culminate in special 
Reformation services October 30 and 
31. Pastor Shull is a Susquehanna 
man and has a fine charge in Chance- 
ford township, about 17 miles from 
York. With his tin lizzie we travel- 
ed in style. The gracious hospitality 
of his home and of his people is a 
source of much joy to us. 

Our visit to Chanceford is broken 
by a trip on Saturday, October 27, to 
Clearfield, where we preacb on the 
28th, and then back with our Brother 
in York County. These notes leave 
our hands in Clearfield late Satuday 
evening. 

One of the features of our work has 
been' a brief stay at time with brethern 
on acount of series meetings. In this 
way w^e have gotten very close to many 
people and lined them up as perman- 
ent friends and supporters of Susque- 
hanna. It has been our constant effort 
to develop a mailing list or real value, 
and we feel confldcDt that this is being 
done. 

Susquehanna is interpreted to the 
people through her altlmni and her 
representatives. Every man or woman 
who bears our name should ever re- 
member that fact. Every word spok- 
en, every act committed, even the un- 
conscious influence of personality, 
makes either for or against the school.

AS A REMINDER 

" Some of the colleges have been 
boasting of the strength of their 
eleven this fall. Two or three have 
taken great pride in the fact that 
many of their stars are back. This 
may be proper, but it is nothing to 
boast of, and especially at a time when 
many of the colleges have sent every 
regular to the firing line. Varsity foot- 
ball should be played just the same 
this year as in former years, but there 
will hardly be any championships and 
it is well to understand In advance 
that no great credit can be attribut- 
ed to any winning eleven, when the 
victors are opposed to a team who have 
lost all or most of their 1916 stars by 
sending them to the front.

LUTHER THE REFORMER A 

FACTOR IN MODERN AFFAIRS 



Sixteenth Century Monk Still Exerts i Great 
Influence on Public Affairs — Father of 
Democracy and Advanced Education 



DiGison mm 
mm iFORiLS" 



Four hundred years have elapsed 
since the Reformation. But its re- 
sults are apparent in our life today. 
Blessing of divine importance are 
en.ioyed by twentieth century civiliza- 
tion which are the logical outcome of 
the deeds wrought and the principles 
championed by the leader of that 
great movement — Doctor Martin Luth- 
er. Tliough he received harsh criti- 
cism, though his worlt was done 
against unequal odds, though he was 
despised by many, he is heralded to- 
courage, of undoubted love for man- 
courage, of undaunted love for man- 
kind, and of unflinching devotion to, 
the cause of true Christianity. We, 
the generation of the enlightened 
twentieth century, are indebted to the 
courage, devotion, and intellect to this 
mighty man for blessings without 
which our individual lives would b? 
wretched and miserable. 

But before we consider the effects 
of Luther's work on our lives today, 
let us briefly discuss why the Re- 
lormation was necessary. The church 
and State was in awful state of de- 
generacy. The light of the Gospel had 
almost gone out. IWigion had be- 
come a mockery, a mere formality, a 
blind submission to the church. Rome

world. This doctrine had been placed 
in utter darkness by the rule of Rome, 
and it was Luther who broufeht it 
forth, and it has ever since been a 
livina force in the lives of men; truly 
a doctrine of divine importance upon 
the pure Gospel of Jesus Christ. It 
is everywhere declared by Lutheran 
symbols, "that wc cannot obtain for- 
giveness of sins and righteousness 
before God thru our own strength, 
merits and works; but we are pardon- 
ed an4 Justified gratuitously for 
Christ's sake thru faith." 

Another cardinal doctrine of Luth 
er's was an open Bible, man's only 
guide to heaven. Luther accepted 
the command of Christ: "Search ye 
the Scriptures." In Pre-Reformation 
times l-he Bible was a closed book to 
nearly all mankind. It was written in 
a tongue that could not be understood 
by the people, and of course they 
were ignorant of its contents. Luth- 
er knew that as long as the Word of 
(rod was hidden in a strange language 
the people would walk in darkness. 
But the great work of this monk in 
translating the Bible, and in securing 
its distribution and in expounding it 
in the light of God has brought forth 
fruit. The Bible was literally uii- 



The "Informals" lost one more game 
last Saturday when they were defeat- 
ed by Dickinson Seminary at Williams- 
port. Considerable Improvement was 
shown in the team but they were un- 
able to overcome the onslauglit of the 
Seminary team. 

The first quarter opened with Dick 
inson kicking off. Janson received and 
the ball was advanced several yorda 
by plunges. Wc then lost the ball on 
downs on the twenty yard line. The 
Seminary then advanced about twenty 
yards and tried a forward pass which 
was intercepted JUy Pasket who carried 
it nearly the whole lenqlh of the field 
but was downed about two yards from 
the goal. Janson then carried the ball 
across. Pasket failed at goal. 

The Seminary then received and 
made several large passes. The ball 
was worked up the field but was losi 
on downs near the goal line. The 
playing was nwirred by scrapping be- 
tween the teams. The quarter closed 



Clionian Literary Society celebrat- 
ed their annual Hallowe'en festivities-' 
on Wednesday. This affair, informal 
as it may be, is a time looked forward 
to by all of Clio and her friends each 
year and each year seems to climax 
th(^ previous one. So that this year 
by general consent has been conceded 
that dtspiio tlie cold weather and 
other odds, Clio was at its height in 
social affairs. 

The party was held near Dogtown

Had a stranger happened into the

They were unlettered, and many of 
them never read the Bible. The 
Popes were profane and wicked. The 
priests had become so indolent, un- 
chaste and ignorant that they were 
regarded with contepipt by the peo- 
ple. There was no soundness in re- 
ligion, nor any freedom and popular 
' education for the people. The hour 
of God's judgment had struck. A re- 
\» formation was necessary, and God 
had the man ready to carry it forward. 
The one great doctrine espoused by 
Luther and the one great principle 
that means so much to the Christian 
man of today is Justification by Faith. 
Man can no longer buy his salvation; 
he cannot receive forgiveness of sin by 
good works as was supposed before 
, the Reformation. We are saved by 
the operation of God, not by the co- 
operation of man; by God's mercy and 
love, not by man's works. We are 
to be paid for our good works. They 
are tokens for mercies received 
They flow from the fountain of our 
love for God; they are the fruits of our 
love for Him. This great truth brush- 
es aside the whole jungle of good 
works monks and nuns, and the count- 
less host of saints, and their pomp and 
glory, and we see no man but Jesus 
of Nazareth. Man's salvation is thru 
the Attonement of Christ. He suffer- 
ed and died for the sins of a lost 



known to the masses. The consola- 
tion that we get from reading and 
studying the pure Gospel would never 
be experienced. The inspiration that 
comes from the example of Christ's 
would be lacking. We could never 
have that divine book taught around 
the firesides of our homes, or ex- 
pounded in our churches. Had it not 
been for Luther and his Reformation 
Christianity for the individual woukl 
today be sunk into oblivion and the 
blackness of eternal night. So un 
measurably great is the blessing thr.t 
it is above human understanding to 
comprehend it. To us the open Bible 
is eternal life. 

Thru the workings of the above 
doctrines Luther won victory over the 
Papacy. And this victoiy was the 
first dawn of modern freedom. When 
Luther stood before the Diet of Worms 
the liberties ol the whole were in the 
balance. When he was tried liberty 
was tried. Whe he won liberty was 
victorious. When liefore God and all 
the dignitaries of Europe he declared 
that unless convinced by scriptures 
or other valid reasons he would not 
recant, then modern liberty was born 

Now let us briefly discuss the differ- 
ent phases of fvcdom that wo enjoy 
as a result of this work. To him we 



hanna. 

At the opening of ihe second quar- 
ter Leslie made a laige end run and 
carried the ball up thf. field but on the 
next down the- ball was lost by a fum- 
ble. The Seminary again worked sev- 
eral forward passes but were unable 
to score and the half closed with the 
score G-0 for Susquehanna. 

Second half opened with Seminary 
receiving. They were then held for 
downs. Susquehanna fumbled but re- 
covered the ball and gained forty 
yards on a forward pass. Seminary 
hen blocked a kick and scored a touch- 
down. The try at goal was successful. 
Susquehanna then received and by end 
runs and line plunges advanced the 
ball forty yards when they were held 
for downs. Pendergast secured the 
ball on a fake pass and \^ent for about 
twenty-five yards. The ball was then 
advanced to the fifteen yard line 
where it was lost on a fumble. 

During the fourth quarter nothing 
but open football was played. Semin- 
ary tried many forward passes but all 
were intercepted. Neither side was 
able to score. 

The game as a whole was very 
dean and the treatment given the 
team was of the best. Tho we lost yet 
it is felt that the team is developing 
fast and much material is being pre- 
pared for next season. 

The line-up: 



to make things real inviting and 
autumnal. At about 7:30 the hikers 
coupled up as well as possible left 
Seibert Hall under the able chaperon- 
age of Professor Brungart. Reaching 
their destination, after a little social 
chatting games were started find the 
merry making ceased not from then 
till tho party broke up. All thru the 
evening games of all kinds were play- 
ed in which all took pait with a vigor 
only Jack Frost can put into a per- 
son. But not only had the decorating 



complete success. It was in the form 
of a masquerade party and tlie mem- 
bers and friends of the society p.sscm- 
bled for an evening of real fun. Cos- 
tames of all manner find description 
were to be seen. Dwarfs and giants, 
frogs and snakes, babies and old 
women, knights and ladies, ghosts 
and devils, and many other freakish 
bi'ings beyond description or enumtra- 
tion paraded around thru the room 
dimly lighted by Jacko-lanterns. 

Promptly at nine o'clock all un- 
masked and the program began. This 
was in charge of Mr. Selin D. Ulrich. 
Professor Meyei rendered a very de- 
lightful piano solo, Mrs. IIoyt-Aire 
then sang a very impressive solo ac- 
companied by Prof(>ssor Meyer and 
M:s. llobart and next Mrs. Hobart

rosy-cheeked apples with pretzels were j <lit^ss. Games of various kind.s weie 
first served and soon disappeared and Hi'^n indulged in. In the song gues- 
then came cider. I ^'"^ contest Miss Sara Rine was the 

successful one and was presented 



Then to cap the climax some real 
pieces of delicious pumpkin pie. After 
all had been served games were again 
played with renewed energy till near 
midnight when the crowd began to dis- 
band. With light hearts, tired hands, 
and full stomachs, all set out again 
for Susquehanna reporting a good 
time. 



.\ writer in the Scientific America 
recalls an experiment once made ai 
Amherf-t College, in which a younA 
F.Qiia.sh was placed under a steel hni- 
ness and in a wooden cradle, in such 
a way that its expensive force, as it 
gn \v, was exerted against a lever or. 
which weights were carried. After 
two months, mediani'^il energy of 
over two ton.i was registered, and, 
when the harness burst under the 
strain a week late, a w^eight of two 
and a half tons was raised and coulJ 
have been carried if tlu' squa.sh had 
been propeiiy supported. 



with a piano for her skill. In the 
whistling contest Papenfus was the 
winner and received a checkin- board 
as a reward. 

This ended the progiara and after 
all were sealed the refreshment com- 
mittee served a very appetizing 
lunch. Pretzels and cider, doughnuts 
and apples, pumpkin pies and pickles. 
All were greatly enjoyed. 

After the appetites were satisfied 
the party took a hike to Book's Bank 
and returned about midnight tired but 
happy. It is the general opinion that 
the 1917 reception is the best in the 
history of Philo.

Judge Johnson is well known as a

THE REFORMATION 

in Principle and Action 

Rev. Sanford N. Carpenter, D.D. 
Former Instructor Carthage Col. 

"The Reformation in Principle 
and Action is different from the 
common run ot book.s on the sub- 
ject of the Reformation. . . This 
is an up-to-date history of the 
Reformation. Its modernity ap- 
pears time and again notaljly 
in the references tg the present 
world war. . . But its modernity 
is not the only feature which 
makes this book different. The 
word Reformation in the title 
comprehends the entire Protest- 
ant Reformation. . . The reader 
may not tarry long with any 
one person or at any one place, 
but before he leaves one eountry 
and Rtens over into another, he 
has bad a close and clear sur- 
vev of the religions nolitical and 
soeial life of the eountrv he lust 
left." -Lutheran Church Visitor.

Owing to illness, Rev. Sassaman was 
unable to appear and Dr. Acherman, of 
Sunbury, Avas called on to make the 
address. He used as his text part of 
I Cor. 12:32, 33, "... which were 
men that had understanding of the 
times, to know what Israel ought to 
do; .... they were not of double 
heart." He declared that selflshnt>ss 
was the cause of the war and of much 
of the misery of this world. We are 
not v.illing to sacrifice unselfishly for 
others. He quoted for an example 
that some time ago tlie church asked 
for five dollars from each christian for 
the cause of mis.sions. The millions 
thus raised would convert the world to 
Christ in less than a generation. But 
the ansv/er of the people was in the 
negativr. They prefered to spend 
their money for pleasure and selfish 
interests tnan to devote the money 
which God had intrusted to them to 
the furtherance of His kingdom thrn 
all nations. Students owe it to the 
vvorld to prepare themselves for their 
life's work and to unselfishly forego 
many pleasures in outer that (hey 

I 

may do this. — -

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 

There was a fair attendance at the 
Y. M. C. A. meeting Thursday night. 



In experiments conducted in the 
University of Wisconsin it was found 
that an extremely thin electro-deposit 
of zinc or iron, exposed during four 
months of wet weaihrr, alforded pro 
tection against rust, while much thick- 
er deposits of copper, brass and 
nickel, rusted badly. As zinc coat- 
ingK were found to be as porous and 
as much pitted as the others it was 
concluded that their superiority in pro- 
tection against rust resulted from the 
absence of voltaic action.

BOYS REPORT EVERYONE IN 
GOOD HEALTH AND SPIRITS- 
INTERESTING CAMP STORIES 



We were glad to welcome back to 
Susquehanna those members of the 
Ambulance who were here on furlough 
over Sunday. They had some very 
interesting stories of camp life to tell. 

At the present time they are not in 
the regular camp on the Allentown 
Fair Grounds but because of the 
crowded condition of the camp and the 
lack of heat havf. been out on a hike 
and have camped in the clay pits at 
Guth Station. This is a barren sort of 
country and the boys are getting ac- 
customed to life similar to the trench 
life "over there." 

For the first few days they slept In 
the dog tents while the dugouts were 
being prepared. Those have now been 
finished and occupied so that they are 
more comfortable than before. The 
camp is on a hillside and the dugouts 
are burrowed back into the bank 
When a fair sized space has been ex- 
cavated a hole is put thru the roof 
for ventilation and this Is covere<^ 
with brush to render it less conspi 
cuous. At the top of the hill ditchc; 
have been dug to carry the watei 
away. Straw mats and fires are in thr 
dugouts so that they are very com 
fortable. 

Nearly every day mimic wars are 
staged and a few wounded, then the 
Ambulances come up and the "wound 
ed are taken to the hospital, some to 
the base and some to the other hos- 
pitals. The training they receive in 
this way is exactly what will be their 
duties in actual warfare and the sol- 
diers are getting very expert in these 
tactics. 

All report that they are enjoying the 
life and are happy to be in the service. 
The boys are all looking well and en- 
joying good health. 

Our best wishes and prayer go with 
them as they return. 



A BIT OF PHILOSOPHY 

Did it ever occur to you that a man's 
life is full of crosses and temptations? 
He comes into the world without his 
consent and goes out against his will 
and the trip between is exceedingly 
rocky. 

When he is little the big girls hug 
him; and when he is big the little 
girls kiss him. If he Is poor he is a 
bad manager; if he is rich he is dis 
honest. If he is in politics it is for 
graft; if he is out of politics you can't 
find a place for him and he is no good 
for the country. If he is actively re- 
ligious, he is a hypocritic; if he takes 
no interest in religion he is a hardened 
sinner. If he doesn't gove to charity 
he is a stingy cuss ; if he does It is for 
Bhow. If he dies young, there is ft 
great future for him; if he lives to be 
«n old man, he missed his calling. 

If you save money you're a grouch; 
If you speisd it you're a loafer. If you 
get it you're a grafter; if you don't 
you're a bum. 

Wbat'B the use? 



JUDGE JOHNSON SPOKE 
AT 1 1 C. II. 




WELL KNOWN JURIST GIVES 
MOST INTERESTING TALK TO 
BOYS ON PATRIOTISM 



Pmtronixe Susquehanna adT«riUitni. 



Judge Johnson addressed one of the 
largest Y. M. C. A. meetings of the 
year last Tuesday evening in the Y. 
M. C. A. rooms. All available seat- 
ing room was occupied in one of the 
best meetings in the history of the lo- 
cal organization. The devotional ex- 
ercises wore conducted by Allbeck, 
v/ith Dr. Schnure and Rev. Stephens, 
of the Presbyterian Ministers Insur- 
ance Company, offering prayers. Judge 
Johson addressed the meeting on the 
subject of Liberty. He stated that 
there were three great crises of the 
struggle lor liberty in this country 
and that the present was the third of 
'.hese and was the greatest epoch 
since the beginning of the Christian 
ora. The struggle for liberty was be- 
p;un when the colonies felt the iron 
'land of British tyranny and took up 
irms to defend their rights. In these 
colonies were found men from Ireland 
vho fled here because of religiouF 
persecutions in their home land. And 
ilso those sturdy pioneers from the 
north of Ireland called the Scotch- 
Irish braved the wilderness. Puritans 
Iriven out-ef England by the Cavalier;^ 
^nd British nobililv fleeing from the 
Protectorate peopled these colonies 
'ogether with French Hugenots and 
phlegmatic emigrants from South Ger 
many. These were the people who 
lought to support the Declaration of 
Independence and maintain their pol- 
itical and religious liberty. But be- 
side this hard earned liberty grew an 
opposite and inhumane institution, 
slaverj'. The second great struggle, 
the Civil War, determined that liberty 
and not slavery should prevail for all 
men. Peace and apparent safety fol- 
lowed until the third great struggle for 
liberty broke out. If America had 
been fully prepared no nation would 
have dared to begin such a collosal 
struggle against liberty. Yet we are 
fortunate to live now and be able to 
help in this world struggle. Our 
liberty is menaced by barbaric Prus- 
sianism which must be overthrown. 
The judge stated that he had two sons 
in the service and two more who will 
enlist when of age but he would pre- 
fer that his sons be shot to being cap- 
tured and tortured at the hands of 
those modern barbarians descended 
from the same blood as and combined 
with the Turks. It is the Prussians 
and not the South Germans from 
which the so-called Pennsylvania 
Dutch are destended who started and 
are waging this awful conflict. There 
can be only two kinds of American 
citizens now— traitors and patriots 
and any person who dares to defend 
Prussia in any manner belongs to the 
ftrst class. Prussia, a small warlike 
state, subdued the surrounding states 
and compelled them to pay allegiance 
until she formed the German empire 
and added Alsase-Loraine. Now she 
has practically conquered her allicB.

Lovers of music were given a rare 
treat Thursday evening in Seibert 
Hall when the faculty of the Conserva- 
tory of Music and the Department of 
Expression gave the annual Faculty 
Recital. 

A large audience was present to 
greet the performers and by their 
hearty applause showed their appre- 
ciation of the skill on the entertainers. 
Professor Moyei opened the program 
with two selections on (ho piano, "If I 
were a Bird" by Hcnsclf, and "Etude 
Japonaise" by Poldini. Mrs. Ayer then 
followed with two very pleasing solo^ ; 
"Connais tu le Pays" by Thomas and 
'"GaG Fleeting Hour," by Lee. This 
-:as followed by a most wonderful 
violin solo "Romanze" by Wagner- 
Wilhelmy, played by Mrs. Hobart. 
Pdofessor Keener, of tlie Department 
of Expression was next and he gavo 
'several very interesting readings from 
noted authors. At times he had the 
nudience on the verge of tears and at 
She next moment they would be full of 
laughter. He was encored several 
Mmes and responded with short spicy 
repartees. 

rrofeasor Meyer cucn rendered "The 
Question" and "The Answer" by 
Wolstenholme on the Pipe Organ in a 
very masterful manner, and was fol- 
lowed by Mrs. Aycr who sang "The 
Quest" by Smith in her own most de- 
lightful manner. Mrs. Hobart closed 
the program with "Fantasie Ballet" by 
de Beriot and was encored repeatedly. 

The recital was an Artists recital in 
every sense of the word. The mem- 
bers of the faculty are indeed artists 
and held the interest of all thruout 
the evening. All who were present 
were loud in their praises of the per- 
formers and those who were absent 
missed one of the great treats of the 
year. 

Susquehanna can justly feel proud of 
these her instructors. 



(Concluded at foot of next column) 



Pacifists, German sympathizers and 
all others who object to war only as 
it is likely to involve the integrity of 
their skins may now honorably put 
themselves beyond its reach by join- 
ing the ship-building forces of the 
United States, to whom conscription 
is not to apply. 



Continuing law records in destruc- 
tion by U-boats mean high records in 
destruction of U-boats. 



(Continued from preceding column) 
luniics. Thus Judge Johnson con- 
demned and denounced the evil pur 
poses and malignant and inhumane 
practices of the Prussian ruled Ger- 
mans as whose head was that dia- 
bolical liar and Inhuman savage, the 
Kaiser. The Judge also recommended 
and praised the effort of the Y. M. C. 
A. to raise a war fund of thirty-five 
million dollars to carry on their work. 
President Shoaf announced that a 
campaign to raise SusQuehanna's chare 
would soon be startad. 



PHILO 

Philo enjoyed an interesting and 
.spirited meeting on the evening of 
Friday last. A large crowd was pres- 
ent to hear the special girls' program 
of the evening. The fair co-eds of 
Pliilo rendered a splendid program, 
equal to any that the boys could pro- 
duce. The essay class was ably filled 
by Miss Olive Salem, who showed 
careful research and diligent prepara- 
tion. Miss Marion Weaver enter- 
tained with a delightful declamation 
find Miss Charlotte Weaver delivered 
a thoughtful and apt original oration. 
A piano duet by the Misses Allison 
v.as artistically rendered and heartily 
appreciated. The select reading was 
rendered by Miss Susan Rearick, who 
charmed the society by her forceful 
ronditicn. The debate was especially 
huiTio}-ous on the question Resolved, 
That it is better to be the wife of a 
Junk Dealer than of a fish peddler. 
Misses Violet Moycr and Lulu Fetter- 
olf argued staunchly in favor of the 
junk dealer but w'cro overwhelmed by 
flie witty arguments of Misses Jess 
McCool and Dorothy Rearick, who fav- 
ored the fish pcddUr. The Philo as 
edited by Miss Helen Salem was full of 
quiet humor and patriotic sentiment. 
Miss Marion Charles, of Middloburg, 
was initiated as an active member of 
Philo. It in such meetings as these 
that keep the spirit of Philo alive and 
lie following programs promise to be 
equally interesting and worthy of the 
audience of all students and faculty. 



CLIO 

Clio met in regular session Friday 
evening, November 9. An interesting 
program was rendered. 

Mr. C. E. Naugle read an essay en- 
titled "The Great Cause," which was 
very suggestive and rich in thought. 

Miss Persing delighted the Society 
with a short, but very humorous ora- 
tion. 

Miss Sigworth followed with a time- 
ly reading. 

The debate "Resolved, That College 
Proclamations should be dispensed 
with was ably supported by Gortner 
'21 and Benfcr '21, on the aflinnative, 
and by Knorr '21 and Zechnian '21, on 
the negative. The judges decided in 
favor of the affirmative. 

The piano duet by the Misses Stein- 
inger and Smith was beautifully ren- 
dered. 

Mr. Shannon spoke extemporaneous- 
ly on the subject Status of American 
Football Teams. 

Mr. Neidig read the Clio, which was 
full of humor and sentiment. 

The meeting was well attended and 
full of interest thruout. Let us con- 
tinue in this manner and strive to 
make Clio the greatest success poi

NOTED MINISTER OF GENERAL 
COUNCIL DELIVERS LECTURE 
ON CHURCH BUILDING 



Subscribe for the Suiquehannna! 



Rev. Schnure, Assistant Secretary of 
the General Council Lutheran Church 
in America visited Susquehanna last 
week and gave a very interesting and 
instructive lecture on church archt- 
ti;c:ure. 

He began with a history of the var- 
ious architectures from the Greek 
down to thru the Roman and Gothic 
to the present time. When the Chris- 
tian church first began the old heathen 
temples were used as places of wor- 
ship. When they began to build their 
ov.-n edifices naturally they were some- 
v.hat similar to the old heathen build- 
ings but soon began to change. 

The old Greek churches had a large 
dome and beneath this was the altar 
with the congregation around. In 
time the altar became so separate 
from the church that the priest had 
almost the whole service to perform 
and the congregation noihiiig. In the 
Romanesque it was different. Here 
the cross prevailed and round arches 
were common. The people had a large 
part in the .services tho this in time 
was lout and the priest had the great 
part. After this the Gothic came into 
prominence with its pointed arches. 
These were patterned from the 
l)ranches of trees: This was by far 
(he most beautiful of the three styles 
and most common in European coun- 
tries. 

In America all these styles are found. 
When t; - Puritans of New England 
began to uuild churches they made 
them very plain without any decora- 
tions. They held that anything beau- 
tiful should not be allowed in the 
churches. This custom is still in some 
churches, while in others the reverse 
is true. Often (he church is built 
in such a way as to detract from the 
spirit of worship. 

He advocated a form of structure that 
would characterize the Lutheran 
church. It is largely customary now 
to have the Lutheran churche.s built in 
the form of a cross with the altar in 
(he aps of the cross and tho pulpit in 
front with the baptismal fount to the 
right or left. This is the proper way 
to have these arranged to bring out 
their real meaning. The rlioir is also 
arranged so (hat it is less apt to de- 
tract attention from the minister. 

The church should be arranged so 
that it will be conducive to worship 
and not only for convenience. 

The lecture was a very helpful one 
and was thoroly enjoyed by all who 
were privileged to hoar it.

LUTHER THE DUTIFUL 

Luther the Heroic, one is apt to 
style the Reformer in view of tho-^e 
unforgettable scenes: before the mag- 
nificent diet, shocking majesties by 
his plain, horn and toothless answers: 
before the bonfire, tossing into the 
flames a papal bull, giving curse for 
curse: best known perhaps, before the 
door of the Castle Church, tacking on 
a challenge that was to resound thru- 
out Christendom. He was a hero, un- 
daunted ,a man of daring. But he 
was more. Luther was a man of 
character. He was prompted to do 
whatever heroic were his to perform, 
not by a sense of daring, but. by a bet- 
ter, deeper, nobler impulse, by a sense 
of duty. 

Strip from the bald facts of Luther's 
life the romance gathered by age, view 
his daring acts, not in the brilliant 
light of resulting events, but in the 
plain light of your old everyday sun, — 
and better far, more truthful and more 
worthy is the picture, more like the 
photograph of the fact. You see not 
Luther the Heroic but Luther the 
Dutiful. 

Luther was busy and tired, perhaps, 
when he took up his quill to pen those 
theses against indulgence sales. He 
had much work — he was professoi', 
teacher, preacher, and pastor: he had 
much to read, to write, and to think: 
he was just then engrossed in the 
plans to reform the university. He 
thought perhaps, of the work and the 
loss of time a dispute with Tetzel 
might cost: a great loss with counter- 
valing gain. He did not think of his 
theses as a chalenge to the Pope, a 
defiant daie, an opportunity to win a 
great name. He would have preferred 
likely not to write them. He wrot«^ 
them nevertheless, just because he felt 
that he had to. Whatever he may or 
may not have thot, he did think of his 
poor deceived people, his own parish- 
ioners, he was their pastor, he mus' 
herd and guard them. Duty called. 
So he set himself to his task: his soul 
burned within him and the thots leap- 
ed hot from his heart. The flaming 
theses were forged on the anvil of pure 
devotion only. 

The same sense of duty guided 
thruout his life. Posting his theses, he 
had thot that the tap of his hammer 
would ring as a brazen alarm thruout 
Europe and echo in America: he jus* 
did his work. The same sense prompt- 
ed his bra\e reply at Worms: "I can 
not do otherwise:" moved him to burn 
the Pope's bull and denounce its au- 
thor as Anti-Christ, to return from the 
Wartburg to Wittenberg, to reject 
Zwingli's proffered hand of broher- 
hood. He had choice, he had to do it. 
Thus we see Luther the Dutiful. We 
see him, not a towering statute of 
heroic dimension.s mounted high on a 
xnagniflcent base, majestic but ur 



away; we see him close at hand, cheer- 
ful, kindly, flaring, fagged, in what- 
ever mood, always of one mind: to do 
his duty. Is'nt this the better view'' 
It does not down us, depress us, over- 
awe us. It rather lifts us, nerves us, 
encourages us. Luther'.-, work had no 
more sparkle and luster about it than 
ours has. If he did it wonderfully 
well, he did it because he dared, — yes, 
he dared to do his duty. 



THE REVIVAL OF THE 

POST CARD ALBUM 

Surely none of us are too old to re- 
member the days of the popularity of 
the post card album. How often have 
wo perused those books of kaleides- 
copic wonders with ravenous enthus- 
iasm and delight, seeking with eager 
eyes scenes beautiful, comic, and pa- 
thetic! How often have we pointed 
with pride to the representations of 
the haunts of our last vacation and 
the vacation before the last and the 
vacation before that! How often de- 
lighted our guests with our collec- 
tions of pictures showing magnificent 
structures, the broad avenues, the 
palatial homes, the extensive parks 
of which our native city boasts. The 
post card album was always the 
source boolc for memories of friends 
in distant parts, of reliable data on 
the standing of relatives who have or 
have not neglected their fraternal ob- 
ligations by exercising this easy 
means of communication and informa- 
tion as to how "Willie has grown," 
and how many "teeth Baby Ruth has 
cut since we sent you her picture." 
It has always been a ready and relia- 
ble reference book as to the merits of 
Atlantic City or of Eagles Mere or of 
Lake Minnehonka as a summer resort. 

But the post card album soon went 
the way of all American fads. It was 
consigned to a disgraceful end; sunk- 
en in oblivioo as a result of the in- 
sane American desire for something 
new; given to the baby to play with; 
scenes of city, country, seaside and 
mountain scattered to the four winds. 
Swift and terrible was the fate of the 
erstwhile popular panorama of scenic 
beauty; summarily removed from the 
place of honor on the popular table 
and remorselessly thrust into some 
dark corner of the attic or the cellar 
with serene unconcern of its former 
dignity. 

But all this is now about to be 
changed. The post card album will 
soon "come back." With the rise in 
postal rates the flood of post cards 
will be diminished and soon they will 
become a rarity, highly prized and 
worthy of preservation. Once more 
our friends will regale themselves 
with the contemplation of delectable 
sunsets on pleasant hills and verdant 
valleys; once more will our diflScult 
guests be sufiiciently entertained and 
the rapturous admiration of picture 
post cards will fill many an embarras- 
sing pause in the pointless conversa- 
tion. Villegevllle and Heckertown will 
again find their places on the' map 
with their "views of Main Street" 
consisting of a row of trees border- 
ing what might be termed a mud road, 
and with the shadow of a suspicion of 
a house party visible thru the foliage. 

Thus the sable clouds of Increased 
postage still have their argent lining.

SECRET OF FAILURE 

I'm going to set the river on fire — 
t omorrow. 

I've made up my mind to turn over 
a new leaf and get busy and DO 
things — tomorrow. 

I've fooled around all day, and yes 
terday, too, and the day before, but 
things are going to hum— tomorrow. 
I've had an idea for some time that 
This or That would be a crackin' good 
scheme, and I'm going to try it out- 
tomorrow. 

I need a better and more attractive 
display for the goods in my store- 
and I am going to take that question 
up in earnest— tomorrow. 

I've felt for a long time that this 
store needed brightening up— needed 
glngerin,— and I'm going at it for all 
It's worth— tomorrow. 

I've been losing business or else 
standing still for I'll be darned if 1 
know how long— but you watch ray 
smoke — tomorrow. 

I've been setting a lazy, no-account 
example around this store; I act like 
a hook-worm, and talk like a clam; I 
I've got ft face on me like a affidavit 
I've got a face on me like an affidovit 
and every clerk In the place looks like 
his b¥Bt friend was dead, but you 
watch us spruce up and be stappy— 
tomorrow. 



YOUR CLASS MEETING 

Did you attend your first class 
meeting this year? 

You probably did. It seems to be 
the popular thing to do during the 
first week of school. Gould and should 
it not be the popular thing to do during 
the whole year? Class meetings are 
called to give every student a chance 
to have a voice in the affairs of his or 
her class. The president is elected 
to lead and call these meetings and 
take any other responsibility which 
the class votes to give him. But there 
seems to be an unwritten low in each 
class that the^ president can do all the 
work of the class voters and take all 
the responsibility that he cares to or 
is able to carry. 

There are fournjistinct reasons why 
every student should attend his class 
n.eetings: 

pii-st- Ecvery student should be able 
to speak in public and a class meeting 
is a good place to begin. Later on 
you will be very glad to have had this 
chance to get rid of the cold feet busi- 
ness. 

Second— People are always, very 
ready to talk about taxation without 
representation. One of the best ways 
to prevent such taxation is to come to 
class meetings and vote on how your 
class money is to be spent. 

Third— The class needs the support 
of every student, otherwise how can 
it be a class? Why let a few repre- 
sent you and then kick about the way 
things are done? 

Fourth— You owe it to your college 
ta make your class a strong class and 
it can only be strong by every stu- 
dent taking his share of the responsi- 
bility. 

For these reasons it behooves every 
student to attend every meeting of his 
class up to the time of graduation.

When it comes to giving bouquets

,i<!octed him on Thursday night when 
he was handing them out. 



Some fellow's promises are no better ' 
hail German treaties, mere scraps of 
paper. How about it Jim? 



Scrooge don't want State to have 
any more foolhall games. Why? 



Either the pripon is very tired or 
else the bed is very soft to make him 
sleep twenty-one hours at a stretch. 
Which was it Shannon. 



The girl's hapl<;et ball team started 
practice last week and the outlook is 
for a good team. 



The band was out Wednesday ev- 
ening and showed up very well. It is 
getting along fine and the student body 
can justly feel proud of it. 



A man may wear white trousers 
With coat and vest of black 
But as yet he isn't wearing clothes 
That button down the back.

IN DEFENSE OF OPPORTUNITY 

Is tlie college the land of wasted op- 
portunity? Does it teach sloth and 
laziness, or self-control, self-analysis, i 
and quick action, besides academic and i 
technical subjects. Do college stu- 1 
dents proflt in sp.^re hours, or is this 
time unproductive? 

These are the questions which oc- 
cur to every fond parent who sends 
his son to college and are frequently 
recurring during that period in which 
tlie young man is away from home. 
Sooner or later he finds his answer. 
lie is big enough to know that it is 
not only that which is obtained from 
the book and the classroom whicli 
makes a college man a success, but 
very largely that indefinable "some- 
'hing" in the character which makes 
so fine a cliange in the man. 

And what is this "something"? It is 
a certajn polish on the manners, a cer- 
tain poise and self-confidence, a habit 
of careful survey of a matter before 
plunging into it and beyond all an en- 
thusiasm for work and a determination 
for success. The curriculum of a col- 
lege cannot produce this effect, but 
the associations and undergraduate ac- 
tivities can and do. If a man does 
not secure this trait it is not the fault 
of Opportunity. 

Opportunity is ever present around 
Susquehanna. She is tremendously 
neglected by some, yet made much of 
by others. It is the man who has more ] 
than a mere nodding acquaintance 
with opportunity who will be the sue 
cess in this world, and the time to 
scrape up, a friendship with tho God- 
dess is while one is in the training 
period of college life, that character 
moulding period that will so vitally af- 
fect what you do later on. 

If you have ever neglected to gain 
whatever training you could out of 
managing a team (or trying to), writ- 
ing for publication, speaking In public, 
learning how to kick a football, or to 
order a dinner, you have insulted op- 
portunity, you have hurt yourself, and 
may the blame be on your head.

IN DEFENSE OF OPPORTUNITY 

Is the college the land of wasted op- 
portunity? Does it teach sloth and 
lazines.s, or self-control, self-analysis, 
and quick action, besides academic and 
technical subjects. Do college stu- 
dents profit in spare hours, or is this 
time unproductive? 

These are the questions which oc- 
cur to every fond parent who sends 
his son to college and are frequently 
recurring during that period in which 
the young man is away from home. 
Sooner or later he finds his answer. 
He is big enough to know that it is 
not only that which is obtained from 
the book and the classroom which 
makes a college man a success, but 
very largely that indefinable "some- 
'hing" in the character which makes 
■^o fine a change in the man. 

And what is this "something"? It is 
a certain polJ5-h on tlie manners, a cer- 
tain po=se and self-confidence, a habit 
of (;;r-.'!ul suivey of a matter before 
plimging into it and beyond all an en- 
thusiasm for \vork and a determination 
for success. The curriculum of a col- 
lege cannot produce this effect, but 
the associations and undergraduate ac- 
tivities can and do. If a man does 
not secure this trait it is not the fault 
of Opportunity. 

Opportunity is ever present around 
Susquehanna. She is tremendously 
neglected by some, yet made much of 
by others. It is the man who has more 
than a mere nodding acquaintance 
with opportunity who will be the suc- 
cess in -this world, and the time to 
scrape up, a friendship with tho God- 
dess is while one is in the training 
period of college life, that character 
moulding period that -will bo vitally af- 
fect what you do later on. ""^ 

If you have ever neglected to gain 
whatever training you could out of 
managing a team (or trying to), writ- 
ing for publication, speaking in public, 
learning how to kick a football, or to 
order a dinner, you have insulted op- 
portunity, you have hurt yourself, and 
may the blame be on your head.

Y. M. AND Y. W. C. A. CAMPAIGN 
FOR WAR FUND WEDNESDAY 



Susquehanna lias much to loso and, 1 he athletic authorities roar,oned and 

leasonod wisolv, that if thiri game of 



nothing to gain when the present 
gridiron season opened. Y\''ith a team : 



l)rain;; and brawn had fitted these 



I men, who had been i-o 



(0 volun- 



that compared favorably with the | ^,,^^j. ^^^, „.^,io„ai service, to nlunse 
best elevens of the secondary institn- l jj^p jj^e and swing the ends of the 



tions of th'-- Ees-t, the Oran,r;e and 
Maroon had last year won a reputa- 
tion that n5:e:ht well be coveted by 
even lar,'-;!r insritutions of learning. 
If reputation alone should have been 
considered the pohtic move for Sus- 
quehanna to pursue at the opening of 
this scholastic year would have been 
to discontinue football as a college 
sqort until Ihe prefent world war had 
closed, when those stalwart youths, 
who wore the Orange and Maroon in 
last year's footlndl clashes hut who 
are now reprrronting the tri-color — 
the red, v.'hite and blue— in the var- 
ious army camps of oiu' nation, might 
again return to us and offer their en- 
ergy and foot' mil ability to uphold the 
reputation Su5fiu:>hanna had just be- 
gan to make for herself in the world 
of intercollegiate football. 

But tliose in authority realized that 
successful football means more than 
the winning of victories. Football, as 
a real athletic sport, io not so much 
the wianir.;T of victories, as it is the 
development of men who arc? ever 
ready to play the game as if they 
were winning. 

The opening of the present football 
season found Stisquehanna with no 
veteran men from last year's team 
which rMf':!it ci rve a;; a Jiucleus for 
the formation of a iv-x: team. In fact, 
no letter men frora the 1916 team had 
returned to play, and but two of the 
gritty little r. .- rvi' elrvrn of last 
year reported for practice when the 
coaches called for volunteers. With 
but two or three e-ef ntiona the entire 
squad ccmpri, 'i-'r t

enemy in Europe, it was prop.T and 
right that the boys at Sus'.iuebanna 
should continue to receive the br'nefits 
to ijo derived from t!ie gridiron Vi-urh. 

And so with entirely inexperienced 1^,.,^;^^^ ^y President Aikens 
material, v^ith little hope of winning ' 
victories, and with the realization that 
the reputation, she had I)Ut begun to 
gain might be lost to view in this 
year's vv'ork, Susquehanna determined 
to continue football this year. Tlio 
she has won no special laurels on her 
various fields of contest, yet as the 
season comes to a close the student 
body repose confident in the thought 
that they have done their duty. They 
know th.at those who soon may b^- 
called from our midst to battle on 
more gory fields, will go better pre- 
pared and bett(-r trained to serve 
their country, and more able to take 
care of themsflv<^s. 

Tho Susqtu'hanna has contested at 
times with teams that might be con- 
sidered below her in athletic standing, 
yet we Ijelieve none of her alumni and 
undergraduates considers that she 
has belittled herself by so doing. For 
not only has she given her student 
body the opportunity for the develop- 
ni.mt V, hich is bound to accrue from 
engaging in this vigorous sport, but 
she has at the snu'.e time kept alive 
in the minds of i^i- students and 
friends tliat athletic spirit which will 
make it easier for the development of 
a winnifig winning team when the 
shadow of war's dark cloud has pas- 
sed over otir land. 

No long list of gridiron vlctorii^s 
can be recorded for the Orongo and 
Maroon this year, yet we belimc v. e 
can justly pronounce Susqui Imnna's 
l')17 football season a glowing suc- 
cess.

THE JOLLY LIFE 

What is tlie jolly life? In all the 
Koodness of a God of love, mortal man 
has been placed in this garden spot of 
creation, the world. Even from the 
very first his has been a goodly herit- 
age. As lie lifted up his eyes and 
looked to yonder forested mountain 
range, standing aloof in all the ma- 
jectic natural beauty of a king of ages 
he saw thertin tlie liandiwork of a 
master. The green topped area 
stretched away into that great some- 
•wher(> and lost itself to view. The 
dashing mountain stream sprang wild- 
ly over its rocky bed sprinkling sil- 
very spray upon the ff-alhered fern 
that gently dipped its velvety edge in- 
to the freshness of the water. Cliffs 
stood out in bold relief revealing the 
secret that within the bowels of earth 
lay deposits of mineral, rich enough 
In their substance to serve an age of 
man. All these were his. 

The eye turned and a fertile valley 
revealing itself in fruitful abundance, 
fell upon the screen. Level lowlands 
broadening away into limited area 
presented a beautiful contrast. Whis- 
pering pines and munnuring hemlocks 
gave way lo fields of bending grasses. 
Wild and roaring streamlets united in- 
to a calm and peaceful river winding 
quietly in its cour.^e to the great 
waters beyond. Boulders were l)ut as 
dust and knew no place in this val- 
ley which respected nature's calling. 
Here the song bird sang its matin in 
joyful glee. Heic the lion, stalking, 
seized his bunted prey and from 
thence carried it to his mountain liome 
that he might satisfy his ravenous 
appetite unmolested. This was Hie 
natural order of tbiiifis. 

Today, hesitating in tlie iuisy whir 
of a modern life, what a pitiable 
.sight looms up before us as we see 
our dreams wrecked on the shores of 
the real and they lie asleep, yes, dead 
in the giave. The iiiountiiin sides 
have b<'en stripped of their virgin 
forests. .Mines have penetrated the 
rocky mass and liave drained Hie 
precious ore. The streams alone re- 
main, but not in their former beauty. 
Their roar is one of revenge, and in 
their madness they dash into the val- 
ley carying cruel destruction to a 
civilized rac(^ of people. The grasses 
are nipped to the v(>iy roots and the 
land cropp( d lo its doom. I'lived 
highways lead to noisy blustering 
cities where lust and vile corruption 
abound, but no road leads honie! All 
in system! The world has been or- 
ganized to its own desti'uction, be- 
••ause man Iihk not known how good it 
Is to live, liut has approjiriated the 
goodness of (iod's boiini.v lo a greedy 
and selfish purpose. 

There is a life that is constructive. 
If the chief end of creation is mutual 
happiness, and if man would attain 



that goal which God has placed be- 
fore him, he must have thought for 
tliose agencies of civilization which 
conserve the pa.^t, prt^serve the pres- 
ent and make possible a progressive 
future. The home, .school, vocation, 
state and church justly claim attention 
that will eventually draw out the 
marks of a man. 

In the homo there should lie obed- 
ience. To obey is better than aacri- 
Oee. This fundamental virtue is the|..... 
contribution of the home to society j J* 
and civilization. The underlying idca|s 
of the school is development. Dcvel- |g 
opment of the body as the fit medium IB 

I WM 

of expression for the mind; develope- 
ment of the mind as tlie fit governor of 
the body. In the business world, in 
which each man follows his vocation 
and justifies his existence by the 
sweat of hi.s brow, there is no inter- 
dependence of the sons of earth. The 
Vvorld of one's vocation emphasizes 
the unity, the solidarity and interde- 
pendence of man and man. Justice 
is the fonudation of the structure of 
human society, and the state shoidd 
be the impartial judge, rewarding 
every man according to his deed. In 
the church man comes into his wid- 
est consciousness through relation- 
to God. There should be righteous- 
ness, the doing of the will of the Su- ^ 
preme Being upon the earth, the j 
transformation of the kingdoms of' 
earth into the kingdom of heaven, th(^ 
addition of love and mercy to law and 
justice. Complete resignation to these 
agencies bfidge the chasm between ■ 
the human and the Divine and make , 
broad the field of action. ! 

Service!!! Service!! Service to 
God and our fellovs'men. This is love! | 
This is peace( This is joy! T^his is j 
the jolly life! And if at the setting of I 
the sun of life's great day, when twi- 
light is ushered in and darkness I 
spreads its veil o'er earthly cares and 
the clarion bugle calls to blessed 
eternity, life's blood spells out in i 

blazoned letters, "In as much as ve i 

i 
did it unto the least of these, ye did | 

it unto nie" and if the eternal finger 

of God writt>s "enter thou into the joy 

of thy Lord" truly you have lived the 

jolly life.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 

The Y. M. (!. A. meeting last weelc 
was well attended to liear Rev. J. A. 
Richter, of Milton, siiis and speal: 
The exercises were in charge of Pas- 
tian including an invocation by Presi- 
dent Aikens. Ibn-. Richter delif;htful- 
I 

ly rendered an inspiring and devo- 
tional song entitled "Teache Me To 
Proy." In hi.s introduction Rev. 
Richter stated that le.s.s than twenty 
years a,t,^o ho was a student at Sus- 
quelianna I'niver.sity. As a boy his 
parents were unable to send him to 
school even I ho he felt that he sliould 
bt' a minister and it wasn't until lie 
was married, had .several children and 
had made some money in busines.s. 
While he was in the seminary his 
eldest son att'uded prep. lie then 
spoke al)out "Christianity and thi- 
Awful War." This war is the worst 
thing since the creation of the world. 
Just as individuals are punished for 
their sins while they ai-e still lure on 
earth so also are nations punished for 
their misdeeds and war is this ine- 
vitai)le punishment tor national sin. 
There are many fundamental sins 
wlii(h caused this war. The first i.s 
national jealousy. Each nation es- 
pecially in Europe is ever watching 
the other lest they get more power 
and wealtli than themselves. The 
second cause is national avarice. 
Russia entered the war for the Dar- 
danelles. England wanted Prusnia'.s 
comemrcial power. Japan coveted the 
Gernian possessions in the east.

ALUMNI NOTES 

Ralph Witraer "15, of the Ambulance 
Unit at Allentown, was a visitor on 
,l^e campus Sunday. He reports that 
all the men show the effects of the 
rlKid training, plain nourishing: food, 
and regularity of haliits which are the 
watchwa'i'ds of military life. All have 
gained in weight and health and report 
a keen enjoyment of the routine of 
camp life under the direction of pro- 
tection of "Uncle Sam." At present 
they are living in clay dugouts on 
the side of a mountain a few mile.« 
from Allentown — getting a real taste 
of trench life, preparatory to entering 
into the strenuous and dangerous ac- 
tivities of the Ambulance branch of 
the "Service over there." 

President Charles T. Aikens, D. D., 
'83, reports the attendance at Susque 
hanna reduced 50 per cent on account 
of the war. The attendance is 210. 
Forty percent of the male students en- 
listed In the army. 

Professor J, Frank Faust '15, in- 
structor of Science and Chemistry in 
the .Johnstown High School, was re- 
cently injured in the arm by a small 
piece of flying glass while performinr 
an experiment in the laboratory. A 
small amount of chemicals explodec' 
causing the accident. 

S. M. Stauffer '17, is now in the 
aviation service and is stationed at 
Camp Kelly, San Antoiiio, Texas. He 
is doing clerical work in the Post Ex- 
change. 



Fred Treaster, formerly of Susque- 
hanna University and Mr. Wagner, 
botli of YeagertoAvn, wei'o Sunday vis- 
itors with Warner '20, at the A. S. O. 
house. 

Miss McCorniick '21, entertained 
her friend, Miss Garner, of Hublers- 
burg, at S. U. during the early part 
of last week. 

Wagner was visited by his jian^nts 
on Sunday. 

LaCrone '21, was visited by his 
brother on P"'riday. 

Paer '20, preached at Dogtown on 
Sunday night. 

Drurnm '21, made a business trip to 
Williamsport on Saturday. 

Schadel '18, was in Harrisburg on 
business, Saturday, 

Papenfus and Spiegelmire motored 
to Turbuttsville Sunday. 



COLLEGE NOTES 

Hackenberg, Teichart, Farrel, Foulk 
and Blair Harman were the "sam- 
niies" from the ambulance corps at 
Allentown who brightened old S. U. 
<'ampus with their smiles and words 
of greeting over the week-end. 

Mr. Denzil King, of Bucknell, visit- 
ed with Gortner '21, over Sunday. 

Jesus Yser, of the Business Depart- 
ment, returned to his home in Cuba 
to take up his former occupation as 
sugar chemist. 



Y. M. 0. A. NOTES 

France wished to regain Alsase-Lo- 
raine. And Prussia desired to extend 
her empire over Belgium. Even the 
United States has not been entirely 
free from avarice remembering our 
seizure of the Philippines, annexation 
Df Texas and dealings with respect 
to the Independence of Panama. 
Militarism is another cause as the 
result of jealousy. Europe was an 
armed camp and Europe is shedding 
her best blood. But a just Providence 
is overruling all this and is meeting 
out a just retribution to the sinning 
nations. Vengeance is mine, saith 
the Lord. Righteousness exalteth a 
nation but sin is a reproach to any 
people. So the hand of God may be 
seen in all this and when the war is 
over Liberty and Democracy shall 
cover the earth. Then after an awful 
sacrifice universal and everlasting 
peave will come. 



Y. M. C. A. 

The Y. M. C. A. will meet this ev- 
ening at 7:15. It is the privilege and 
duty of every student to attend these 
very helpful meetings. 



^r^Ht&eufs ®l)anksgiutu9 ^Prcdantattntt 

BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 



It has long been the honored custom of our people to turn m the 
fruitful autumn of the year in praise and thanksgiving to Almighty 
God for His many blessings and mercies to us as a nation. That cus- 
tom we can follow now, even in the midst of the tragedy of a world 
shaken by war and immeasurable disaster, in the midst of sorrow and 
great peril, because even amidst the darkness that has gathered about 
us we can see the greatest blessings God has bestowed upon us, bles- 
sings that are better than mere peace of mind and prosperity of en- 
terprise. 

We have been given the opportunity to serve mankind as we once 
served ourselves in the great day of our Declaration of Independence, 
by taking up arms against tyranny that threatened to master and de- 
base men everywhere, and joining with the other free peoples in de- 
manding for all the nations of the world what we then demanded and 
obtained for ourselves. In this day of the revelation of our duty not 
only to defend our own rights as a nation, but to defend also the rights 
of free men thruout the world, there has been vouchsafed us in full and 
inspiring measure the resolution and spirit of united action. We have 
been brought to one mind and purpose. A new vigor of common 
council and common action has been revealed in us.. We should 
especially thank God that in such circumstances in the midst of the 
greatest enterprise the spirits of men have ener entered upon we have 
if we but observe a reliable and practical economy abundance with 
which to supply needs of those associated with us as well as our own. 
New light shines about us. The great duties of a new day awaken 
a new and greater national spirit in us. We shall never again be di- 
vided or wonder what stuff we are made of. 

And while we render thanks for these things, let us pray Almighty 
God that in humbleness of spirit we may look always to Him for 
guidance; that we may be kept constant in the spirit and purpose of 
service; that by His grace our minds may be directed and our hands 
strengthened; and that in His good time liberty and security and 
peace and the comradship of a common justice may be vouchsafed all 
the nations of the earth. 

WOODROW WILSON.

HUMOROUS DEBATE DRAWS 
CROWD TO PHILO. CLIO DIS- 
CUSSES THANKSGIVING 



Once more the jolly Juniors assem- 
Wed to renew their friendship with 
their honorable classmates in a "do- 
ins" in the social room of Seibert. 
Hall on Thursday evening. The af- 
fair was honored by the presence of 
John Rote, an cx-mcmber of the class 
and now with the Susquehanna Unit 
of U. S. A. A. C. at Allentown. At 
eight the class assembled and wel- 
comed the chaperons, Miss Housen 
flucht and Mrs. Ayer. The social 
committee, of which Mary Woodruff 
is chairman, and tastily decorated 
the room in orange and black and had 
control of affairs so that the evening 
was a huge success. First on the pro- 
gram v,-a.s "Pig" v.'hich was enthusias- 
tically played and thoroly enjoyed. 
When "hogs" were in the majority 
the committee started "Going to 
Jerusalem" iu v/hich Pappy won out. 
Then the cliairs v ere arranged In a 
circle and "The Empty Chair" was 
played until breathless the '19 sup- 
porters called "Enough." Then to 
test the strength of Junior intellect 
they experimented in the mystical 
realm of mental telepathy. Eastian 
was mesmerized and Chris Schoch 
was hypnotized v,^hile hard heads like 
Shoaf and AUbeck were immune to 
any suggestions from . the mental 
world. Cut Dorothy Allison received 
a suggestion to climb on a chair and 
Celia Spcigclmire wrote her name on 
the blackboard, thoroughly demon- 
strating the fact of mental telepathy. 
Dainty v;ar refreshments were serv- 
ed by tlie coniniittee who thereby 



CLIO 

The Thanksgiving program of Clio 
was a very pronounced success. The 
meeting was presided over by Presi- 
dent Rine. The essay as prepared by 
Chas. Drumm, The Spirit of the Sol- 
diers, Past and Present, and read by 
Stcininger, was well composed and 
read forcibly. Miss Lee Smith ren- 
dered "The Passing of the White 
Svran" very dramatically and James 
Shannon read Patriotic Visions in 
very good style.

FRIDAY EVENING SOCIAL HOUR 
AS PLANNED BY PRECEPTRESS 
A WELCOME EVENT 



Delightful in the extreme was the 
verdict concerning the social hour 
held in Seibert Hall Friday evening 
from six o'clock till society time. 
This was a reception planned by the 
preceptress, Mrs. Hobart, to provide 
a place where the male students might 
come and spend a pleasant hour with 
the fair sex. Once before this had 
been planned but for some reason at 
that time tlie fellows did not show 
up, but this time the most of them 
were present and from after report.^

The subject of debate "Resolved, I seemed to have enjoyed themselves 
That in order to comply with the ' thoroly. 



spirit of the day and to conserve food, 
Thanksgiving this years should be a 
day of fasting ralher than feasting." 
It was discussed on the affirmative by 
Lester Shannon and Russel Stcining 
or and on the negative by Papenfus 
and Cos and was won by the nega- 
tive. 

Auman rendered a beautiful solo en- 
titled, "On the Road to Mandalay." 
The President then called on Middks- 
worlli' for an extemporaneous speech 
and in a very able way he spoke of 
"the success, future prospects, and 
final outcome of the Social Hour." 

The Clio Herald was read by Editor 
Auman and the editorial deserves 
special attention, the jokes were well 
cracked. 

Election was then held and the fob 
lov;ing persons wore elected to fill'tho 
offices for the ensuing term:

time at a very small cost. After par- ' 
taking of the^o palate-tickling eats 
Sell and Millie Mowrer and Jess Mc- 
Cool and Chris Schoch delightfully 
entertained with beautiful rendition.^, 
of Chop Sticks in which Mrs. Ayer 
said they exhibited wonderful tech- 
nique. Miss Art said that the chil- 
dren must soon go home so Scrooge 
pounded the piano while everybody 
gathered aroand and sang "Rah, rah, 
rah, Susfiutlirama," "We are jolly 
students," "lieep the Home Fires' 
Burning," et cetera ending with "Good 
Night LadiLS." And the class of '19 
departed to dream of anolher clasr. 
affair gone into history. 



The music of the evening was furn- 
ished by the newly formed college 
orchestra, and was well received. It 
seemed to put pep into everyone and 
ronsequently the grand march, led 
by Miss Decker and Mr. Faust was 
lull of vigor. 'This prepared every- 
one for the still more hilarious games 
of Jolly Sailor and Going to Jerusa- 
lem. Everyone took part and it was 
surely soul-satisfying to see some of 
our staid and stately theologs swing- 
ing their partners as well as the other 
boys' partners at a lively rate. 

Even the faculty was represented 
and their presence cheered the stu- 
dents. They mixed with the crowd 
and became one of it. 

About seven-thirty the assemblage 
dispersed -and made their way to the 
Society halls thoroly pleased gnd full 
of their praise of the innovation. It 
is to he hoped that this may not be 
the last but that many more similar 
affairs may bo held to take away the 
monotony of dorraitory existance.

PHILO 

A large crov.'d was present to hear 
the program at Philo vvhich met in 

postponed scs-jion. The attraction 
seemed to be the dtibate altho the 
o'.hcr cla:'.-;( s of the program were 
much enjoyed also. In the essay class 
3.1r. Cassler read a splendid and 
eloquent production entitled Oppor-

the audience with mixed humor and 
pathos. Prof. Julio Alfaro was elec- 
ted and duly initiated as an active 
member of Philo. The whole pro- 
gram was unusually Interesting and 
the well filled hall frequently rang 
with the applause for the splendid- 



(Concluded at foot of next column) productions of the performers. 



The patriotism, generosity, self- 
sacrifice and spirit of the student 
body v.as most significantly shown 
last Wednesday in the Y. M. C. A. 
drive to raise Susquehanna's share of 
the thirty-five million dollar Y. M. C. 
.V war fund. The local committee 
had been rather timorous in setting 
goal making it $250 and even then 
there were indications that this 
amount would not be reached. Piut 
when the campaign closed the com- 
mittee was overjoyed to announce 
that $710 had been subscribed, more 
than twice the goal. 

Classes were suspended at ten 
o'clock and the entire student body 
assembled in the chapel. The band 
filed in and played the tune "Hail, 
Hail, the Gang's All Here," and then 
sang these verses: 

.Hail, Hail! for Uncle Sara, 
For the boys v/ho're at the front; 
Yes, they're al,ways on the jump. 
Hail, Hail for Uncle Sam, 
For our Susquehanna boys 

They'll get the Kaiser yet. 
Who'll get the Kaiser? (Spoken) 
Why the Susquehanna boys. 
They will scalp him, oh the joys! 
They'll get the Kaiser yet. 
Watch the Susquehanna boys! 

Throw in your dollars, boys 
For the Y. M. C. A. 
Needs the "dough" this very day. 
Throw in your dollars, boys! 
Help to get the Kaiser's goat. 

This did as much good as many pep 
speeches and everybody had caught 
the spirit. President Aikcns turned 
tlie meeting over to the chairman, Dr. 
Woodruff who mado a short snappy 
speech and introduced Judge John- 
son, the speaker of the morning. 

The Judge told the story of Liber- 
ty's struggle in this country, which 
story had been very enthusiastically 
received whereever be had related it.

was the fn-st great struggle. But 
with this lil)«>riy gri-w up an antagon- 
izing institution. Slavery and our 
country was plunged into the second 
great struggle to determine whether 
all men should be free or not. Lib- 
erty again triumphed, peace reigned 
until barbaric Prussianism dared to 
menace the liberty of the whole 
world. In this third great struggle 
we are opposed by an inhumane, am- 
bitious, unreli.r.bie and barbarous tribe, 
Prussia, who violates treaties, kills 
noncombatants and uses any means 
to gain tliiir end. Prr.r^sia must be 
d(>r(>ated. It is the patriotic duty of 
every individual to support his coun-

I done and is doing her part and will

j of flvo million in France is no longer

THANKSGIVING VACATION 

It ha.s been decreed by the honor- 
able faculty of our beloved institu- 
tion that the student body must fore- 
go their accustomed vacation this 
time. The reason for this is not ap- 
parent to the student body but as 
they have nothing to say in the man- 
agement of affairs they have nothing 
to do but endure. In former years it 
has been the custom to allow a vaca- 
tion from Wednesday noon till Mon- 
day noon so the students have be 
come accustomed to this and arrang- 
ed their work accordingly. 

With the upper classes this has 
been a time for them to work up 
some of their special work such as 
orations, theses, etc. Along with 
their regular work it becomes a bur- 
den to do these extra requirements 
but in these few days vacation they 
can do these with no extra strain on 
their mental powers. Then again 
this conies just a short time before 
examination time. If the students 
are required to continue their regular 
work up to the time of examinations 
and then be compelled to do all the 
extra work in addition they come to 
the exams in an exhausted condition. 

Then in return for this what do the 
students get, three days added to the 
Christmas vacation. All the students 
like to go home for Christmas but 
two and a half weeks is long enough. 
Three weeks seems a very long time 
and causes too great a break in the 
course of studies. When a person 
has bet 11 away from his books for 
three weeks the knowledge he had 
gained becomes stale and it takes 
some time to get back into the work 
properly. 

The students should have more to 
say concerning things regarding them- 
selves. This matter was presented 
10 the students in such a manner 
that only about half of the students 
could vote. The other half had to 
remain quiet. Then only about half 
of the voting portion wished to contin- 
ue school. 

Still the j)owers that be decree that 
it shall be as planned and they must

much. Then victory will be ours and 
may our boys come back clean and 
pure, under the glorious stars and 
stripes, not a star blotted out nor a 
stripe erased and our victorious ban- 
ner .shall wave over a peaceful land 
of the free and home of the brave. 

The band further inspired tlie stu- 
dents by playing Onward Christian 
Soldiers. Mr. Walter Brown then took 
charge of the meeting. lie announc- 
ed that the goal was $350 and called 
for subscriptions which came in such 
numbers and of denominations from 
$2,5 to $1 that two men were required 
to keep count of them. The girls con- 
tributed nobly and the boys very gen- 
erously so that when the meeting was 
closed at the noon hour over $650 had 
been pledged. The cheer leader, Mr. 
Papenfus called for several yells. 
An A-N-N-A for the Y. M. C. A., Ki- 
yi-yi for the boys at the front, Oski 
wow, AVOW, Judge Johnson and A-N-N-A 
for the Y. W. C. A. The band played 
in conclusion and the student body 
departed, proud of what Susquehanna 
could do. The final figures are: Fac- 
ulty, $121.00; Girls, $191.00; Boys, 
$398.00; total, $710.00. Rah! Rah!

THE PROBLEM OF 

COLLEGE STUDENTS 

When the call to national service 
arose, spirited young men everywhere 
of course wanted to be employed in a 
patriotic way, and I suppose there 
is scarcely a young man in any col- 
lege in the country who has not very 
anxiously addressed to himself the 
question: "What con 1 do?" 

To the extent that the men in col- 
lege are physically disqualified, or to 
the extent that they are too young 
to meet the requirements of the de- 
partment, it seems quite clear that in 
the present state of the emergency 
their major usefulness lies in remain- 
ing in the college, going forward with 
their academic work. The knowledge 
that the students will acquire at col- 
lege will equip them for subsequent 
usefulness if the emergency lasts until 
their call comes. 

But we do not w^ant to chill enthus- 
iasm. Wt want to preserve enthus- 
iasm and cultivate it and use it; but 
we do want to be discriminating in 
our enthusiasm, and prevent people 
getting the notion that they are not 
helping the country unless they do C 
something different, which very often ^ 
is not the case at all. The largest , 
usefulness may come from doing the I 
same thing. Now, it is not unnatural ;►< 
that there should be these ebullitions 
of feeling, this desire to change occu- 
pation as a badge of changed service 
and devotion to ideals. Our colleges 
can exercise a steadying influence in 
this regard. 

We are going to have losses on the 
sea; we are going to have losses in 
battle; our communities are going to 
be subjected to the rigid discipline of 
multiplied personal griefs scattered 
all through the community, and we 
are going to search the cause of those 
back to their foundation, and our feel- 
ings are going to be torn and our 
nerves made raw. There is a place 
for physicians of public opinion to ex 
ercise a curative impulse. The young 
men who are in our colleges, who go 
to their homes from our colleges and 
make up a very large part of the dir- 
ection of public opinion, can exercise 
a curative influence by preaching the 
doctrine of tolerance, by exemplifying 
the fact that it is not necessary for a 
nation like the United States, which 
is fighting for the vindication of i 
great deal, to discolor its purpose by 
hatreds cr by the entertainment of any 
unworthy emotlcn.

ALUMNI NOTES 
Rev. Chas. R. Streamer Sem. 12, 
pastor of the Liberty charge, conduc- 
ted the mxiaic during the past week in 
the revival services held by the Rev 
! 0. Trestle, of the West End charge. 
Rev. H. W. Miller '14 and 17, pas- 
tor of the Espy charge was a visitor 
at Susquehanna during the past week. 
Rev. Miller is having a marked sue- i 
cess in this field of labor and reports 
very, favorably upon the progress be- 
ing made. He recently received an in- 
crease of one hundred dollars in sal- 
ary as a mark of the appreciation of 
his people. 

Prof. L. D. Grossman '16, of Ard- 
niore, for two years Physical Direc-

the work of building up strong, vig- 
orous men, not only physically but 
mentally and morally, from his 
youthful charges. 

W. E. Swoope 16, of Altoona, for a 
number of years popular all-around

diers at the front.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 
Baer led the meeting of the Y. M. 
C. A. last Wednesday evening. For 
some reason only a small audience 
was present to hear our field secre- 
tary, Rfev. Botsford, speak. The Y. M. 
quarter sang a beautiful selection af- 
ter which Rev. Botsford spoke. By 
way of introduction he stated that he 
has been traveling everywhere in his 
work and lately to New Kork City 
and Washington, D. C. Everywhere 
he saw men in uniform. There aie 
soldiers in the small towns as well 
as in the large cities. The figure of 
the soldier is a familiar one in the 
Bible. In 2 Tim. 2:3 we read Thou 
therefore endure hardness, as a good 
soldier of Jesus Christ. Every true 
man even in times of peace must be 
a soldier and have soldier qualities. 
The soldier is the ideal man physical- 
ly and mentally and spiritually. Sol- 
diers arer equired and are willing to 
give their bodies to be sacrificed for 
their country. He is willing to suffer 
anything for patriotism. So also the 
Christian soldier must give his body 
to God, which is his reasonable ser- 
vif'e. The average man is lazy. He 
is contented if he is given enough to 
eat and is given some form of enter- 
tainment. We must overcome this 
and impel! ourselves into the tasks 
before us. We must fight appetites 
and passions— appetites varying from 
candy to alcohol. He stated that his 
son Kieth in Camp Upton, Long 
Island was assigned the duty of 
keeping individual records of men 
and he reported an appalling percen- 
tage of disease due to immorality. 
We must drill, too. Our drill is our 
daily devotions which prepares us 
for Christian service. Nor must we 
fight alone for the Holy Spirit helps 
us in the fight. God wants us to be 
true soldiers of the cross and to fol- 
low His banner staunchly. As the 
efficiency of the army depends on the 
morale so the Christian army must 
have morale. The soldiers must be 
consecrated and trained. As Na- 
poleon always waited on the top of a 
hill with his picked cavalry till four 
o'clock to make his final charge and 
then swept down the hill with his 
legions shouting "Vive I'emperor" 
strengthening weak hearts and gain- 
ing the victory so Christ is sweeping 
on with his legions of Christians

Some night! This was the opinion 
expressed by all those who attended 
the party in Seibert Ilr.ll last Wednes- 
day night. The girls who were re- 
maining over Thanksgiving that ev- 
ening entertained th'! male members 
of the student body vvho v<-ere doing 
the same. A very Ciijoyable evenin? 
was spent. 

During the early part of the even- 
ing games and mtiSiC were the fea- 
tures. The Victrola furnished the 
music and all who wished were grant- 
ed the privilege of dancing. For the 
others there v/ere many other kinds 
of games. At the beginning some 
were so very bashful that they v/ero 
afraid of each other while others WHue 
KO jealous of their pfirtners that they 
would not allow any otlier person near 
them. But as the evening progressed 
these feelings wore off and all joined 
together for a rousing good time. 
Soon the call came to desist from these 
amusements and to ascend to the 
parlors and there came the important 
pare of the evening at least from the 
fellow's point of view. 

A large fire v/as blazing on the 
hearth vvhieh iigiited up the whole 
room. After the blaze died down and 
the glowing embers alone remained 
marshmellows were toasted and ap- 
ples pa;^sed around. More dancing 
and games followed and all too quick- 
ly the evening passed and it was 
with deep regret that it was learned 
that it was time to leave. 

The fellows all join in extending 
their deepest thanks to the girls who 
were the instigators of this pleasant 
evening. Tt took away much of the 
irksomeness of a day of idleness and 
enlivened the depres.sed spirits of all.

Due to the Kuspension of school on 
Thursday for Thanksgiving Day, 
many members from both societies 
having gone home, it was decided to 
hold a joint session, which proved to 
be a rousing success. The attend- 
ance was not large but enough to 
make an enthusiastic meeting. 

The meeting v/as called to order 
by ex-pr( sident Rine. After installing 
the president-elect of Clio, Mis.s 
Schadel, the meeting was in charge of 
the new president, who made a short 
but spicy inaugural addre!;s. Then 
followed the regular order of the pro- 
gram. 

Miss Evelyn Allison, of Philo, read 
an essay entitled "The Life and Trial 
of Socrates," which was very forcibly 
rendered and which showed the spirit 
of ancient times. Miss Marion Bot.«- 
ford. of Philo, rendered a d'^elama- 
I tion entitled "Things That Make a 
Soldier Great." It was very ably 
given and was characteristic of care- 
ful preparation. 

The debate "Resolved, That the 
Parties to Industrial Disputes should 
be compcllod to arbitrate their difH- 
cullies." was ably supported on t'j" 
affirmative by Milliamson and C. E. 
Naugle, on the negative by V. D. 
Naugle and Janson. The judtres de- 
cided in favor o f the afflrmaMve. 

Music "All the World Will Be 
Jealous of Me," ;uinK by Aunian. of 
Clio, acc(impani>d l)y Allbeck, of 
Philo, was very well rendered, and 
fully enjoyed by ;•]). The original 
oration by Iliiie, of Clio "Christianity 
not a Failure," was well rendered 
and greatly appreciated by all. The 
extempore talks by Papenfus. of Clio, 
and Speigelmlre. of Philo. were in- 
structive and expository. Herald, by 
the editor, Mr. Cole, of Clio, was very 
newsy and very pleasingly read. It 
contained many spicy jokes, which 
were very timely. 

Let every student take an active 
part in literary work. There are 
great opportunities for those who 
wish to grasp them. 



Roscoe Treasii'r'.s room on second 
floor was the seme oC one of S< lins- 
grovo Halls big feeds on Tuesday, 
Nov. 27. The inmates oft lie East 
side of the Dorm have organized 
themselves into a prayer-meeting 
band and conduct their services once 
a week in the different rooms. Hav- 
ing ju;-it completed a series of meet- 
ings lasting a week, and being almost 
Thanksgiving time it was decided that 
a feed would be a most appropriate 
j thing. Accordingly the necessary 
I cats were purchased and a* 8:"0 p.

I preliminaries the cats were sprer.d out 
'upon the tables, and the first parade

seated ourselves by the tables laden 
with sandwiches, crackers, and other 
delicious dainties. After some jestin.-j 
the second grand march for wenners 
was begun and asain as before all 
were well supplied. Then followed the 
delicious pumpkin pie and ice cream. 
When all had eattn to their henrts de- 
sire of these dainties the final march 
and parade was begun which was 
not ended until the wtencrs were all

COLLEGE SLACKERS 

Who slights his studies in these 
days of effort does not deserve a col 
lege education. He is a slacker of 
whom it behooves us as a university 
to speak. The Federal Government 
is caring for the others. It is the duty 
of each student to make the host of 
his opportunities at all times, but es- 
pecially in these days of trial he ought 
not to neglect a single means thai 
lends to self government. With their 
lives others are paying the price for 
the peace we now enjoy. By our ap 
plication to the tasks before us do we 
show our appreciation of the sacrifice. 
Or do we rather tend to let things 
take their course and wait to see 
what the resuk of it all will be? If 
80 we had better awake to our better 
selves and by our labor in the self im- 
posed task of education in some way 
show that we are conscious of the 
essential needs of the day in which 
we live. 

The first duties of the university 
even in war limes, is to prepare men 
for tlip affairs of life, and so far as 
most of us are concerned the affairs 
of life are to be the essential process 
of peace. Highly concerned as we are 
for tlie successes of this war, we are 
noL unmindful of the fact that the 
war is not to be won entirely by th*^ 
use of the nearest guns— Napoleon 
had such al Waterloo — nor is it to be 
won merely for the sake of the win- 
ning. Anns alone we fear will prove 
a broken reed, and such an aim will 
be our surest degradation. Why 
cannot we as educated men and wom- 
en keep these facts in mind? 

We cannot justly consider ourselves 
slacker? because we are not enlisted 
in the nation's fighting army. Altho 
in another field we are just as much 
in tlio nation's service as ai-e the 
khaki clad youths. -But to keep from 
becoming slackers we must feel our 
duty as college students as import- 
ant as do those who are doing 
actual fighting. 



THE WAR SAVINGS 

PLAN SUMMARIZED 
The war-savings plan provided for 
in the last bond act, of September 21. 
1917, has been formulated and an 
nounced by the Treasury Department 
and goes into operation on Monday, 
December 3. 

The plan puis it easily in reach of 
every American citizen to save money 
and at the same time aid the Govern- 
ment by supplying it with the sinews 
of war. !£ 

Stamps, v.hich are the Government's |S 
certificates of indebtedness, are to belB 
sold in two denominations— thrift js 
stamps, which cost 25 cents each, and |S 
v,-ar-savings stamps, which cost from 
$4.12 to ?4.23 each according to the 
month in which they are purchased. 

With the first thrift stamp the pur- 
chaser is given a thrift card with 
spaces for 16 stamps. When 16 thrift 
stamps have been purchased and af- 
fi.xed the thrift card can be exchanged 
for a war-savings stamp by paying 
the difference between the $4 the 
thrift stamps represent and the cur- 
rent value of a war-savings stamp 
which in December, 1917, and Jan- 
uary 1918, will be $4.12, and thereafter 
1 cent for each succeeding month dur- 
ing the year 1918. 

With the first war-savings stamp ob- 
tained by purchase or exchange the 
owner is given a war-savings certifi- 
cate containing spaces for 20 war- 
savings stampsT If the 20 spaces are 
filled during December, 1917, or Jan- 
uary, 1918, the cost to the purchaser 
will be $4.12 for each stamp, or $82.40 
for the full certificate, and on the 1st 
day of January, 1923, the Government 
will redeem the certificate at $100, 
giving the holder a net profit of $17.00 
for the use of his money. 

Although these investments do not 
mature until January 1, 1923, provis- 
ion is made whereby upon 10 days' i 
written notice after January 1, 1918, 
such certificates will be redeemed by 
postmasters at their cost to the pur- 
chasers plus tl cent a month on each 
war-savings stamp on the certificate. 

The thrift stamps do not boar in- 
terest, but the war-savings Ftamps be i 
4 per cent, compounded quarterly. The 
certificates will be dated January 2, 
1918, and mature January 1, 1923. 

Under the plan an amount as small 
as 25 cents can be invested in a Gov- 
ernment security, and as soon as $4 
has been thus invested and interest- 
bearing certificate of the United States 
Government can be secured. 

The stamps and certificates can be 
obtained from post oflices, banks, or 
trust companies, at most railroad sta- 
tions, stores, factories, and many other 
public places. 

Having the entire wealth of the 
United States back of them, and being 
redeemable at above stated, there is 
no danger of any depreciation in value 
of the certificates.

C. A. nieeijug last Tuesday night 
reading for the Scripture lesson Matt. 
12: 22-23. Rev. W. M. Rearick, of 
MiiTiinburg, ^»as introduced to tb^ 
new students and was well received 
by th'^ old students as the speaker of 
ho evening. An alumnus of Susqu( - 
hanna, he stated that he was well 
pleased with the splendid work of tht 
Y. M. C. A. as reported in "The Su.v 
Quehanna." He used as the basis of 
his talk the first half of the thirteenth 
veise of the tv/elfth chapter of Mat- 
'beW: He that is not with me is 
against me. Both in the material and 
spiritual world there are opposites. 
There are characteristics of long an'l 
short, big and small, hard and soft, 
sweet and bitter, as well as of good 
and bad, kind and unkind, happy an^ 
sad. Jesus Christ is the embodimen': 
of all that is gobd. Nothing but the 
"40od and beautiful can be thought ci 
in conection with Him. He is th' 
standard of individual life and who 
ever is not with Him is against Ilim. 
There can be no middle groimd. Man 
voluntarily or unconsciously decides 
to bo with Him or against Him but 
he i.s one or the other. Rev. Rearick 
displayed a chart on which he had 
printed The Relation of Life to Re- 
ligion. On the positive side were the 
receptive class whose chief charac- 
teristic is observance. They are the 
people who are in the church for what 
they can get out of it. This is the 
largest class of those who are for 
Christ and are designated as 1. The 
second class of those who are for 
Christ is the productive class which 
is comprised of those who work when 
something is started and whose chief 
characteristic is propagation and are 
designated as 2. The third Is the 
creative class consisting of those who 
are most interoijted and are originat- 
ing things. Their characteristic is re- 
demption and sign 3. On the nega 
tlve side is the defective class char- 
acterized by unbelief. They are in- 
acti' '.^ and are designated as 1. The 
2 class is perversive, typified by 
hypocracy and positive opposition 
and blasphemy is the characteristic of 
the 3 or destructive class. We must 
all examine ourselves and classify 
our christian natures striving to reach 
the highest, the 3 class. Rev. ^Rear- 
ick slated that ho had received many 
of his ideas from "Self Measurement" 
by Wm. Dewitt Hyde. Much inspira 
tion was received from this Christian 
talk from our honored alumnus and 
we are only sorry that more of the 
fellows did not turn out to greet him.

Thanksgiving Day was very enjoy-

at school. The boys were only too 
glad to take advantage of spending

students participated in a bike, v.'hilc 
the evening passed all too quickly for 
he students entertained at the frat 
houses. We also want to Ihank Mr.

SUSgUEHAiA GIVES UP 
BASKEIABLL SCHEDULE 



INTERCOLLEGIATE BASKETBALL 
ABANDONED FOR WAR PERIOD. 
FINANCIAL STANDING GOOD 



There will be no intercollegiate bas- 
ketball at Susquehanna this year, 
due to the fact that many of our men 
are now in the service. But to take 
the place of this, the Athletic Board 
are planning to have interclass games, 
girls basketball, and social affairs, 
which we hope will keep up the old 
Susquehanna spirit. 

Mr. Wingard reported that the debt 
of the Athletic Association in the fall 
of 1916 was twelve hundred dollars. 
This debt has now been reduced to 
about five hundred dollars. We 
earnestly desire that the student body 
will co-operate with us, and help to 
remove this burden.

TRIBUTE TO THE FLAG 

That flag presents the most beautiful 
combination of national colors that 
was ever unfurled since the beginning 
of time. That flag has carried more 
joy to more humble hearthstones . than 
any insignia 'of government that float- 
ed in the sunkissed breezes of Heaven. 

The red in that flag is redder than 
the rising sun, when it bursts above 
the eastern horizon with a face of in- 
sufferable splendor, redder than the 
carnation flower whose colors are 
brewed in the workshops of Heaven, 
redder than the blush of joy that man- 
tles the cheek of the young mother 
when she feels for the flrst time her 
firstborn's breath. It typefies the 
blood that flowed in riverlets down the 
slopes of Bunker Hill, and stained the 
snows of Valley Forge, the warm- 
current that reddened the sod at Get- 
tysburg and consecrated the apple 
blossoms at Appomotox. 

The white in that flag is whiter than 
the driven snow, when it falls uncon- 
taminated from the matchless hand of 
God, whiter than the chilla lily that 
blossoms beneath the fostering care 
of the loving housewife, whiter than 
the sacred veil that envelops the blush- 
ing bride, whiter than the silver beam 



that shoots from the evening star. It 
typefies the purity of the patriotism 
that animated American manhood on 
a thousand blood-bought fields and a 
hundred crimson seas. 

The blue in that flag, oh, the blue in 
that flag, is bluer than the arched 
dome of Heaven, bluer than the mod- 
est violet that blossoms in the wood- 
ed glen on the sunny side of the old 
log. bluer than the mellow radiance 
that flashes in a woman's eye. It 
typifies the sacrifice of the mother 
who laid her stalwart first-born on the 
altar of his country and kneeling at 
his vacant chair prays to God to com- 
fort her aching heart, then seizes the 
sword that has fallen from the nerve- 
less hand of the dead hero, buckles 
it to the waist of hor stripling son 
and bids him go forth and conquer or 
never return. 

"Flag of the free heart's hope and 
home, 

By Angel hands to valor given; 
Tliy stars have lit the welldn dome. 

And thy hues weie born in Heaven. 
Forever float that standard sheet; 

Where breathes the foe but falls 
before us. 
With freedom's soil beneath our feet. 

And freedom's banner streaming 
o'er lis." 



Members and friends of Philo and 
Clio greatly enjoyed the joint meeting 
in Seibert Hall on F'riday evening. A 
good crowd was on hand to hear the 
splendid program rendered by some 
of the best performers from both so- 
cieties. Miss Dorothy Rearick was 
the presiding oflacer for the occasion 
and ably filled her position, while 
Miss Mabel Steffen acted as secretary 
in an equally capable manner. The 
meeting was called to order by the 
president, who appointed Mr. Seel 
chaplain for the evening and Miss 
Steininger, pianist. On the program 
Mr. Middlesworth, substituting Mr. 
Ard, addressed the assembled multi- 
tude concerning the benefits not only 
of a combined session but of society 
work in general. He related how it 
had been not only his experience but 
that of many other theological stu- 
dents and graduates that fhey had 
reaped large reward from the society 
meetings or had missed one of the 
largest opportunities the college af- 
fords by neglectin.c; literary society. 
His address was very practical and 
quite lively thruout. Miss McCool de- 
lighted the audience with a select 
reading from "The Bird's Christmas 
Carol." No less on this occasion than 
on other programs did Miss McCool 
brilliantly display her tactful judg- 
ment in the selection and her delight- 
ful and entertaining reading of her 
contribution to the program of the 
evening. Miss Steininger exhibited 
her mastery over the piano when she 
beautifully played a solo on that in- 
strument and as an encore accompan- 
ied herself to a humorous song. Mr. 
Harkins orated on the world war. He 
became quite eloquent and soared in- 
to realms of true oratory for which he 
was heartily applauded. "Keep the 
Home Fires Burning" is a song well 
known and liked by all and was 
thoroughly appreciated as sung by the 
favorite of all student lovers of bari- 
tone solos, Mr. Selin D. Ulrich and his 
encore was equally well received. 
Miss Decker displayed her extraordin- 
ary abilities in her reading, "The Lost 
Joy," by Olive Schriner. Her per- 
formance was a pleasant surprise and 
she further won the approbation of 
the audience by her encore, "The 
Hen," by Evan Vance Cook. Misses 
Speigelmire and Smith inspiringly ex- 
ecuted a piano duet "The Witches' 
Flight" in which they won credit 
both for themselves and the conserva- 
tory whore thoy are students. Mr. 
Allbeek read the paper which he had 
edited ar^.nanied "The Zatso." The 
editorials, '^fces and poems, , both 
those which are original and which 
he attributed to the intellects of oth- 
ers, were full of spicy, entertaining 
humor and his ridicule and enumera- 
tion of those whom he termed slack- 
ers has since borne some fruit. The 
chaplain conducted the closing ex- 
ercises. The meeting as a whole was 
a big success and those who were 
absent missed a rare treat along lit- 
erary lines. 



Examples of What the World Treats as 
Greatness and What is the Real Great- 
ness All Should Cultivate 



Every heart has its secrets. Every 
soul cherishes an idea, a yearning for 
something that it dares not breath 
even to the most intimate friend 
Such desires, such yearnings are held 
too sacred to be entrusted to the keep- 
ing of others. But being thus jealous- 
ly guarded, those imvoiced longings 
of the soul become, quite unconscious- 
ly, very dear to the life of the indi- 
vidual. They are, therefore, often 
important factors in the development 
of a character. 

Among such yearnings is the secret 
desire in almost every human heart 
to attain to something of greatness. 
We are not quite satisfied with pres- 
ent glories; we must push on to great- 
er heights; we are constantly crying 
"Excelsior." Do we always reach 
these heights? No. Perhaps we never 
attain to the heights we have pictured 
for ourselves. But does that dimin- 
ish the desire to reach the very pin- 
nacle? Not in the least. Our very 
failures sometimes goad us on to re- 
newed efforts. But still, by many the 
far heights of ambition are regarded, 
not as something to be attained, but 
as a sacred memory — a secret yearn 
ing, a desire — fondly cuddled to tht 
heart and treasured. 

What is greatness then, to be thus 
the unvoiced desire of millions? What 
is it that can fire youthful hearts tc 
dream and to struggle against count 
less odds? Is it the passing glory of a 
moment? 

A small boy was one day playing 
in the sand and pebbles along the sea- 
shore. Like so many boys, he was 
playing war. Pretentious fortifica- 
tions were taking shape under his 
hand. Soon he had finished his work 
of defense and hastened to join his 
comrades in an effort to demolish his 
fortress. But lo! all their efforts made 
no impression upon this fortification 
of sand. He had built a fort whicli 
they could not demolish and his com- 
panions promptly proclaimed him a 
hero and a genius. And thus they 
bore him home In childish glee. Was 
not he great? Had not he accomplish- 
ed what none of the others could? 
Surely, his greatness was unquestion- 
al)lo and deserves more than a compli- 
mentary smile. But when the boys 
had left the beech the tide arose. 
Forces not under the control of any 
human hand, attacked the fortification 
of the Ijoy and when the tide again 
subsided not one visible footstep 
or depression sliowed where or by 
what means he had attained his great- 
ness. 

Alexander led his Macedonian horde 
over the plains of Persia in order to 
become great. As a child he had 
shed ti>ars over his fathers conquest.^ 
liccanse there would be nothing left 
for him lo conquer. As soon as pos- 
sible lie began his conquests in order 
to eclipse his father's name. lie 



wanted to be great. Nations and peo- 
ple trembled at the very mention of 
his name. Opposin.? forces melted 
away before his nic.qical phalanx. He 
was the conqueror of the civilized 
world. lie was accord'd first place 
by all men. He succeeded in having 
the title "Great" atach^d to his name. 
But is that greatness? Where is now 
(lie empire of the mighty monarch. It 
crumbled and fell, almo.'^t as quickly 
as his greatness wlikh came to an 
end in a single night. And so it is 
with most of the illustrious names of 
history. As meteors that flash a- 
cross the heavens wlili a dazzling 
light, they have sprun.g up, achieved 
so-called greatness, and disappeared 
forever. Peace be willi their memory, 
for even that will soon be erased from 
the minds of the living. 

Where then .shall v,e look for true 
greatness? If satisfied ambition, or 
the great names of iu.-;tory are not 
representative of bIwiuicss, where 
shall we find it? Is IhiH, the desire of 
every heart, a vague phantom in pur- 
suit of which we spend our lives but 
which we never overtake? Is our 
quest for greatness dcsiined to end in 
dl.sappointments? No. True great- 
ness can be achieved by everyone. It 
is not an impossible quest. On the 
other hand none of u.s find it. It 
romes to us, unsoliciled, if we anly 
seek for it in places wlieie it can be 
found. 

Over nineteen hundred years ago, 
there was one who pointed out clear- 
ly to us what tru<^ Kreatness is. He 
was not the leader of huge armies 
nor the master of nations. A king 
indeed he was, but liiug in the Empire 
of Love. His name Vwis i allied Jesus 
and his empire the Em rlabting King- 
dom. Christ left us a rule for great- 
ness and we attain unniness only in 
so far as we appl.v il U) our lives. 
Christ, in settling a dispute on tliat 
very subject said, "lii' among you 
who would be greatest, lei him be the 
servant of all." Here \v(> have true 
greatness defined in a single word- 
service. Greatnet-s couks, not to the 
I arrogant conqueror of nations, but to 
him who loses sight of self in the 
service of others. 

That was the prineiple which Christ 
laid down: that, the poignant fact 
which his life brought out. Ho, who 
had power in Heaven and Earth, need 
never have yielded lo the ignomin- 
ious death on the cio- s, lie, whom the 
very elements obeyed, could have rais- 
ed an empire which would have ful- 
filled the fondest hope of every Jew. 
Yet he chose rather to give his life in 
service — a ransom- in onler that the 
generation.s^ of mankind might bo 
benefited, might be saved. That was 
unselfish service. Triat was truo 
greatness. From such a master wo 
can well take the admonition, "He

'what's what" and "what isn't" or is 
he moral training received in a col- 
lege training such, and so accurately 
limed, that, at the end of the four 
years, exactly, a student is sufficiently 
foitified by the indirect moral train- 
ing received thru study that ho can 
go forth, fearlessly, to meet a strange 
world, of which he is as innpcent as 
the day he entered high school. 

A college must guard its reputa- 
tion. A manufacturer safeguards his 
reputation by turning out tested pro- 
ducts. An automobile that has never 
carried a load has never been tested. 
In like manner a student that has 
never had to assume the responsibil- 
ity of choosing for himself, has not 
been tested. 

The graduates, as they leave col- 
lege, ■•re expected to be good boy?: 
and girls; even tho they have no other 
guide than their own conscience. 
Still they were never required to as- 
sume this burden at college. Their 
paths were marked out for them, 
there was nothing to it. Still, they 
are turned loose on a defenceless puff 
lie. without either wardens of keep- 
ers.

MUST OR SHOULD 
By what shall college students be 
governed? Shall it be by a set of 
rules that say do and don't, allowed or 
forbidden, or by their own sense of 
right and wrong properly developed? 
The existence of rules presupposes 
that college students lack a sense of 
fitness of things. It is assumed that 
a college student needs rules whereby 
to regulate his or her conduct, else 
what excuse for their existence? -* 
Certain rules are necessary. These 
are the rules forbidding that which is 
absolutely wrong. What we believe 
should be left to the students is the 
privijegc of choosing for themselves 
what is a happy mdeium in things not 
wrong, except in so far as they af- 
fect scholarship if abused. 

There ar*- individuals in any group 
to who restraint is distasteful. They 
object to having it practiced on them 
either by themselves or others. In 
every flock of sheep there are cer- 
tain ones that persist in jumping over 
the fence. The question is: should 
all the sheep be hobbled because a 
few individuals, or a few groups of 
individuals, refuse to restrain them- 
selves? The majority of students are 
capable of chosing for themselves 
what constitutes a happy medium in 
the taking of priviliges. Still the 
same rules apply to all on account of 
a few. 

Students do not object to the spirit 
of rules as they exist. What they do 
object to is the eternal "must" in 
which the ".should" is completely swal- 
lowed up and lost, for in the presence 
of the "must," the "should" has to 
disappear. Where there is compul- 
•sion there is no ethical quality. There 
is no virtue in observing regulations, 
but there is virtue in proper conduct 
without regulations. 

It is maintained that rules are ne- 
cesary for the Fre.shmen in order to 
counteract the removal of parental 
control. What is to counteract the re- 
moval of the "must" and place the 
"should" in its place when the stu- 
dent leaven college and becomes a 
Freshman in real life? 

When a graduate seeks employment 
he is recommended by the faculty 
both as regards scholarship and mor- 
als. A student has passed a mental 
test but he has never passed a moral 
test. If there has been no proba 
tiunaiy period during th(! college 
course, when a student is placed on 
his honor, how can the faculty know 
that he ^^^ill live Up to the standards 
set by the institution aftw the pro- 
fessors have ceased telling him 



WHY SHOULD WE ALWAYS 

ATTEND CHURCH? 

1. It helps ourselves. The church 
services give vigor to the best 
thoughts and purposes, strengthen 
our integrity, develop and solidify 
ri.ght character, and feed the moral 
and religious part of our nature. We 
cannot afford to lose those sweeten- 
ing and strengthening influences for 
a single week. 

2. It helps the minister. Nothing 
is more disheartening to a minister 
than simple neglect. What sense is 
there in preparing a message for those 
who do not come to hear it? How 
can he preach with vigor to empty 
pews? The dulness of any service is 
often to be laid to the account of the 
absent ones. 

3. A church lives on the devotion 
of its friends. Nowhere is this dcvo- 
or so plainly seen, as in the attend- 
tion so fully shown, so quickly felt, 
ance on the Lord's Day. Every one in 
their place, and the church rejoices 
in a consciousness of strength and 
vitality and goes forth with ztoI and 
power to its appointed work. With 
half the seats vacant, there comes de- 
pression, and the church sinks into 
inaction. The moral tone of any com- 
munity depends largely on its church- 
es. It church goers become negligent, 
the outside community will not go to 
church. The example of every neg- 
lecter of the Lord's Day worship is 
so far an obstruction placed before 
the door of the church to keep others 
away. If the friends of the church 
will attend, strangers will be sure to 
do so.— Church Union.

ALUMNI NOTES 

Lieut. W. NecLson Koller '16, of 
Linden Hall, Pa., is spending a few 
(layn at his home after completing his 

'work at the officers' training camp at 
Fort OgethFope, Ga., where he receiv- 
ed his commission as First Litutenant 
in the Field Artillery. After a few , 
days at his home and with his friends | 
and class mates at Susquehanna he . 
will report for duty at Columbia, S. C. 
Rev. Jerome- M. Guss, A. M., '91, 
pastor of the Muhlenberg Memorial 
Lutheran Church on Sunday, Novem- 
ber 25th dedicated a new pipe organ 
in his church. This is the first pipe 
organ to be installed in Logan and is 
a very beautiful instrument of the 
most modern type. Situated in the 
rear gallery it has been especially de- 
signed to conform architecturally with 
its surroundings and to be played from 
the opposite end of the church on a 
detached console about fifty feet from 
the organ and connected thereto by an 
I'lectric cable of hundreds of wires 
I'ach one "Controlling a single pipe or 
stop at the will of the operator. The 
organ was built by the well known 
firm of C. S. Haskell Inc. and contains 
nine complete speaking stops and be- 
tween four and five hundred pipes. 
Preparation has been made for the 
future additidh of two more speaking 
stops. The wind for the organ is sup- 
plied by a modern kinetic fan blower 
whicTx gives an abundance of steady 
wind whether the organ is playing 
softly or fortissimo. 

The sermon both mornmg and ev- 
tming was preached by the Rev. C. P. 
Wiles, D.D., and a splendid musical 

, program was rendered under the di- 
lection of Professor Moyer, the 
chorister. Muhlenberg Church has 
reason to be proud not only of this 



Sunday night.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 

President Shonf was leader for the 
Y. M. C. A. meeting last Wednesday 
evening and introduced to the fellows 
Dr. Focht, pastor of the college church. 
Dr. Focht spoke on the subject of con- 
troll. By v/ay of introduction he 
stated that he remembered that 50 
years ago he sat in the same room in 
a prayer meeting and that he had not 
only attended school there but had 
taught, been pastor of college church 
and president of the University, and 
hence probably knows the fathers and 
grandfathers of many of the stu- 
dents. 

Men are indifferent to the future 
but have wrong ideals on which their 
future depends and one of these is 
that they do not need control. It is 
a prime requisite of a great pitcher 
that he have control. He cited as an 
example a pitcher whom he knew and 
who had marvelous control. In an 
exhibition he broke a small pine 
board, splitting off a small piece at a 
time. But this same pitcher did not 
have control of himself and died a 
drunken wreck. Men must have ab- 
solute control of their physical bodies. 
Nervousness is a sign of lack of self 
control. The student who sits study- 
ing and at the same time drumming 
on the table with his fingers or 
thumping on the floor w,ith his feet 
lacks self control. Appetites must be

JOIS AND BLOTS FROM

With forty per cent, of her student 
body in the service, no one can siay 
that Susquehanna is not patriotic. But 
why does that sixty-foot flag pole 
stand on the campus day after day, 
without Old Glory fluttering from its ' 
top? Neglect on the part of the offi- 
cials to have a rope put on the pole, 
is the only reason that can be given 
for not having the stars and stripes 
afloat. 



Richard Kauffman and wife, accom- 
panied by Mrs. Wm. T. Horton, have 
gone to San Francisco, Cal. to spend 
the winter. Registrar Horton will 
join them in January. 



It seems a pity that quite frequent- 
ly Science Hall is not properly heated. 
Under such conditions the professors 
cannot hold classes. This is not fair 
to the professors or students.

AN ESSAY ON WHAT CONSTI- 
TUTES TRUE GREATNESS 




(Continued from First Page) 
among you who would be greatest, let 
him be the servant of all." 

But do we always apply this con- 
ception of greatness to our lives? As 
students, is that the way we look up- 
on life? Is that the standard by 
which we judge othens? 

When a new student comes into our 
midst, do we judge his life? his char- 
acter, by the principle of service? 
When he has been with us for years, 
do we always consider him great In 
proportion as his life has been given 
in unselfish service? I fear not. I 
am afraid we sometimes judge a man 
by how much of a "Cain-raising" sport 
he is. If be slops at nothing we say 
he is game and a fine fellow. When 
ho has been with us sometime, I fear 
we sonu'limes honor and reward him 
in proportion as he has been able to 
keep himself and his actions constant- 
ly before us. We concede to everyone 
the perfectly legitimate right to want 
to be great, but we sometimes forget 
the elements of true greatness In our 
appreciation of life. Let us remember 
that only, he whose life is Inspired by 
ideal unselfish service is truly great. 
No better rule for greatness has yet 
been given than this, "He among 
you who would be greatest, let him 
be the servant of all."

IN HONOR OF LOYAL STUDES

LINES AROUND CAMPUS 



A most imprcssivo and solemn yet 
enthusiastic and loyal service was 
held on the porch of Seihort Hall at 1 
p.m. December 12, 1!)17. This was the 
occasion of the unfurling of the ser- 
vice flag recently secured through the 
activity of the co-eds in honor of those 
of our studcnt.s >\ho have answered 
the call of our nation and have gone 
out to protect the horn'} and fireside. 

The flag has eighty-eight stars in its 
field standing for eighty-eight of our 
loyal sons who have given up the 
plepRiirf R and comforts of home and 
school that democracy might live. 

Af'er the assembly had gathered 
the National Anthem was sung and 
prayer offered by Rev. C. R. Botsford, 
whose son is in the service. Then 
president Aikpns gave a brief eulogy 
for the boys at the front after which 
Dr. Woodruff, vhose son is in the 
service unfurled the flag amid cheers 
from the assemblage. The service 
was brief but touched the hearts of 
all. It brought to all more clearly the 
loss we are Buffering in having these 
loyal sons away from us. It helped 
us to rraliRe more forcibly the strug- 
gle in v.hich-Ave are now engaged. 
Tho we suffer these things we are 
glad that we are privileged to bear 
our share of it. 

The flng is a beauty and adds a 
great improvement to the campus. It 
is an exceptionally large flag, being 
about 12 by 20 feet nad is the larg- 
est in the coun'y. 
Many thanks to the girls for it. 



Students returning to school at the 
beginning of the term had rather a 
cold reception. Due to the exception- 
ally, cold weather many of the pipes 
were frozen as well as considerable 
food in the dining room. 

Somehow during the vacation the 
fire had gotten low and potatoes and 
canned goods to the amount of sever- 
al hundred dollars were frozen. In ad- 
dition to this there was several hun- 
dred dollars damage done to tho wat- 
er and steam lines around the differ- 
ent buildings, so that it v.ill take a 
couple of weeks before the breaks are 
all repaired. 

At the Bond and Key house the 
heating plant was badly damaged as 
well as the water lines Considerable 
damage was caused by the water flood- 
ing the house. The water lines in the 
A. S. O. house were broken, entailing 
a loss of about twenty-five dollars. 

At all these places the plumbers 
have been at work and the breaks are 
being rapidly repaired.

On Thursday evening, December 13, 
1917, the Faculty of Susquehanna Uni- 
versity tendered a reception to Dr. 
and Mrs. J. I. Woodruff in recognition 
of Dr. Woodruff's twenty-five years of 
service as an instructor in the Uni- 
versity. 

Dr. Woodruff graduated from Mis- 
sionary Institute in 1888 and from 
Bueknell University in 1890. From 

1890 to 1881 he Avas principal of an 
Academy at Rising Sun, Md.; from 

1891 to 1892 he was principal of the 
Mifllintown Academy and in the fall of 

1892 he was elected professor of 
Latin and English in Missionary In- 
stitute, now Susquehanna University 
and has given twenty-five years of 
successful and acceptable service to 
the institution. - 

After the refreshments prepared by 
Registrar Horton and his faithful 
aids had been enjoyed, all repaired to 
the parlors of Seibert Hall, where con- 
gratulatory addresses were given by 
President Alkens, Dr. J. R. Dimm and 
Dr. John B. Forht, two ex-presidents 
of Susquehanna, Burgess R. L, Schroy- 
er, a classmate of Dr. Woodruff at 
both Misstonarj' ^i«>t'*"te vr\'i Buek- 
nell and by Registrar Horton. 

Dr. Woodruff responded to all these 
addresses in his usual happy manner; 
recounting many of the joys and the 
disappointments of the past and ex- 
pressed determination to continue to 
use his powers in the cause of edu- 
cation and for the good of humanity. 

The exercices were in charge of 
Dr. Thos. C. Houtz as chairman of the 
Public Occasions Committee. 

The occasion proved to be a pleas- 
ant affair and marked one of the 
bright spots amid the trials and per- 
plexities of a teachers life.

Students and all others who enjoy 
good lectures will he given the 
privilege of hearing several this win- ■ 
ter. The Y. M. C. A. cabinet has ar- ; 
ranged for a series of three to be giv- 1 
en during the months of January and 
February. 

The first will be held January 30, 
when Dr. Thos. C. Blaisdell, Dean of 
the College of Liberal Arts at State 
College, will lecture on "Today's 
Patriotism." This is a very forcible 
lecture and on a timely subject. Dr. 
Blaisdell comes to us well recommend- 
ed and has a wide reputation as a 
lecturer. 

The second will be February 12, 
when Rev. C. P. Dastian, pastor of 
the Lutheran church at Charleroi, 
and a former Susquehanna student, 
will speak on the subject "My Boy 
and 1." This is an exceptionaHj* good 
lecture, possessing a wealth of good 
material and also considerable humor. 
It deals with the boy problem. Rev. 
Bastian is well informed on his sub- 
ject and with his humor always sways 
an audience. This lecture has been 
given all thru the country and has 
everywhere won for itself great ap- 
probation. 

The last of the course but by no 
means the least is the widely known 



Dr. Byron W. King, of Pittsburgh. He 
will lecture on the subject "Pay Up or 
Quit," February 20. Dr. King is so 
widely known that it is needless to 
say anything concerning him. Wher- 
ever he goes he is greeted by a large 
audience and he is .lO much wanted 
that it is nearly impossible to secure 
a date v.ith him. We feel very for- 
tunate in getting him to Susquehanna 
and are certain that everyone will 
want to hear him. 

These lectures will be held in Sei- 
bert Hall and the admission for the

A CHRISTIAN THOUGHT 

By Pvt. C. Howard Rothfuss, 

Co. B, 314th Inf., N. A.. 

Camp Meade, Md. 

God gave to us a holy book. 

My eyes in it do often look; 
A little rhyme from it 1 make 
To honor him, for Jesus' sake. 

"A" stand.s for the Almighty 
Who dwells high above; 

And looks upon his children 
With a lalht'ily love. 

"B" brings forth h._ Jessing, 
Which he sliows every day. 

It matters not where we travel 
III '.s with UH on our way. 

"C" stands for Ihf rhriKtinn, 
Who needs his hnlp eaih hour: 

And prays to him flnil.i 
Tu maintain lin' i;isni power. 

"T vid heart 

A heart tluit" itu possess, 

Liut if wf tauiioi reach his height 
Each ono can do hi.s titst. 

"E" is for the Earth below 
Where the people dwell, 

The righteous go to htavt n 
Wliili' tlie wicked go to hell. 

"F" is the Faith that we possess, 
It may be much or little; 

But if the amount be too small 
We are hollow like a fiddle, 

"G" is for God of all. 



Who gave his only son. 
To die upon the cross for us 

For souls that were not won. 

J 
"H" is for our home in Heaven; 

Thanks for the resting place, 
God bless those that fry below 

And help us to enhance. 

"I" stands for the Israel 
Who clung close to his God 

And he was truly guarded 
Whatever land he trod. 

"J" stands for tlie Judas heart 

One that you cannot trust. 
As the world possesses many of theec 

Wo believe them, btcau^^e we must. 

"K" is the beginning of the great 
v,oi-d King 
A lulri upon much depends 
If he be a follower of God I'm sure 
Thru the counlry a good example 
hf sends. 

"L" is the beginning of onr dear Ix)rd 
Who was born of the Virgin Mother, 

By Herod's crt'ed they left Canaan 
land. 
And fled to Egypt, another. 

"M" stands for Moses 

The leader of a tribe; 
Thru his many trials and temptations 

He asked God to be his guide. 

"N" s'ands for Noah 
Tho '.iiit'bT of the ark.

BONDS! 

Who does not chafe against bonds'' 
Yet how one sometimes trembles at 
the lurking doubt of their security, — 
granting of course that there are 
bonds and bonds, sundry and diverse. 

Now there are bonds intimate, of 
which no mention need be made, they 
being so necessary and so universal 
that no normal individual needs in- 
struction in their subtle character and 
manner of performing. Either they 
remain fast and true or they do not, 
BO there's an end on't. So l)e it with 
all things "boche!" 

Then again (here are,— ah, yes there 
are — bonds matrimonial. The editor- 
ial band being yet untrammeled it 
could propel an affluent p^n right 
merrily across several reams of parch- 
ment discoursing on tliis most ex 
haustible subject. However Duty 
bids us rush on. Yet, "it seems hardly 
right." 

Then Liberty Bonds. That is a good 
word, "liberty." It is what we are all 
fighting for now, those who mthe God- 
dess of Liberty has challenged, pas- 
sed as friends, and sent across to do 
their bit, which promises to be their 
all; and those who are held at home 
to organize and utilize industrial re- 
sources for the same cause. 

What is there for us to do, students 
in the chrysalis stage of citizenship?! 
The bonds of duty seem to tug in var- 
ious directions now. Yet for (he ma- 
jority of us as long as the que^stion 
remains to be decided by us, the great- 
est obligation will no doubt be to go 
on with the usual round of work of 
"preparedness" of mind and body. 

This does not allow our usual 
leisurely method of preparing. The 
men in our training camps are learn- 
ing what it Is to concentrate. In thej 
course of a few weeks they acf om j 
plish what we ordinarily would cover' 
in a year's time. Of course this is 
due in part to present stress, yet is 
proves beyond a doubt that we stu 
dents are loafing on the job, and a 
loafer these days is as much a slack- 
er as the man who tries to evade thr 
law. 

Our government has made it siu'- 
prisingly easy to lend a hand in the 
■work attendant on the present war. 
The answer to the demand for funds 
with which to supply the necessary 
equipments of munitions, warships, 
destroyers, transports, and other ma 
chinery of war, and to support relief 
work has been made pfissible by the 
Liberty Loans. They are made In 
various sizes to fit every citizen, 
young or old, rich or poor. Why 



A CHRIGTIAN THOUGHT 

(Continued from First I'age) 
To protect his people from the flood 
So that they could embark. 

On my knees, I cry and pray; * 

And ask to bo directed in the 
narrow way. 

One must continue night and day 
For in this narrow path to stay. 

"P" is the beginning of Peter 
An apostle of Jesus Christ; 

lie was loyal and faithful to his God, 
But still he denied him thrice, 

"Q" stands for the Question, 

That sinners will ask you; 
"If Christ died on the cross for all 

Will he only save a few?" 

"R" is the beginning of Righteousness, 
Oh! God help us to maintain 

This spiritual air, which thou w^ilt 
grarft | 

Without suffering bodily pain. ' 

"S" stands for the Savior who bled and 
died. 

So .shamefully was crucified; I 

Now, "It is finished," Christ died say, 

"He is the Life, the Truth, the Way," \ 

"T" brings us Temptation 
If you yield; one pays the cost 

To retain that noble and righteous 
Vife, 
Which he has so foolishly lost. 

"U" is union between God and Nation; 

It looks as tho he has forsaken. 
Us, who are slaughtering one another. 

But, not the prayer of the motlier. 

"V" Twenty-three Verses this will; 
make, 
I must not yet my pen forsake. 
Some useful thoughts ' have in mind 
Lord, help rae so these thoughts I 
find. 

When death doth come the soul must 
go, 
To heaven or sink to endless woe. 
What 1 have written is surely true. 
The world doth now tho boast 
pursue. 

"X" stands for Xenophen, 

A philosopher ^e|h noble and good; 
Who was lielpful to men in may way.s, 

For uprlghteou^ess he always 
stood. 

Yet, if we all amend our ways, 
Then we shall soon se better days, 

I'm sure if this the path we trace, 
God will provide for those a place. 

"7" with biimaii Zeal, but few do 
speak. 

And thus the (,ioi> o! God speak; 
The love of Christ doth thou constrain, 

They seek not here for earthly gain. 

How many days I yet shall live, 
1 know not; but to God I'll give 

My heart, and with him always bo 
Thru everlasting eternity.

COLLEGE NOTES 

January 8, again finds us ^all back 
within the halls and walls of old S. U. 
relating the merry tales of vacation 
and comparing last terms reports. 
We all ha^ve come back with new zea) 
and a greater determination to work. 
Lets not fall short of our purpose. 
Let us make the remaining days of 
this school year ones that will count 
not for ourselves only but for our fel- 
low men as well. 

Rev. Cressman payed S. U. a visit 
during the opening days of the term. 

Rev. Harry Miller visited at the 
University ou Friday of last week. 
. Among the new students who have 
been enrolled at S. U. this term are 
the following: Misses Long, Cressman, 
Bonawitz, and Messrs. Snyder, Stray-

Dreese. To these we extend a hearty 
welcome. 

Despite the unfavorable weather, 
quite a number of our lads and lasses

Mrs. Harry Walker, hiked to the 



A SEIBERT HALL POEM 

It is night and I am lonely 
And want a man to kiss, 

Then the days so sad and dreary 
Would be filled with joy and bliss. 

For when clouds are hovering near 
me 
And the sun has ceased to shine, 

Then it is that I am longing 
That your arms my waist entwine. 

All around me there is laughter 
A little work and some small talk 

While I sit here fondly dreaming 
Of you and a moonlight walk. 

But since you are so far from me 
And these dreams cannot come true 

You can still do much to cheer me 
When I'm sad and feeling blue. 

Just write a cheery letter 
Rather long and full of love 

And I promise to bo ever 
Your devoted turtle dove.

We are sorry to note that there has 
been so much trouble with the pipes 
freezing due to the extreme cold 
weather. It is a litLle inconvenient 
for the students, but everything pos- 
sible is being done to better condi- 
tions, so just be patient for a little 
longer and everything will again b( 
In shipshape. 



Susquehanna surely is progressive 
Many of the larger schools are hav- 
ing Saturday sessions and shorter va 
cations, In order to give the students 
a chance to work. Starting Saturday, 
Susquehanna will have half-day ses- 
sions on Saturday, thus enabling us 
to leave out a month earlier than 
heretofore. This is much appreciated 
by the majority of the student body.

THE CALF PATH 
"One day, thru the primeval wood, 
A calf walked home as good calves 

should, 
And left a train all bent askew, 
A crooked trail, as all calves do. 
"Since then two hundred years have 

fled, 
And I infer the calf is dead, 
Cut still he left behind his trail, 
And thereby hangs my moral tale. 
"The trail was taken up next day 
By a lone dog that passed that way; 
And then a wise bell-wether sheep, 
Pursued- the trail o'er dale and steep, 
And led his flocks behind him too. 
As good bell-wethers always do. 
"And from that day, o'er hill and 

glade, 
Thru those old woods a path was 

made. 
And many men wound in and out. 
And bent nad turned and crooked 

about. 
And uttered words or righteous wrath, 
Because 'twas such a crooked path. 
"But still they followed — do not 

laugh — 
The first migrations of that calf, 
And thru winding woodway stalked 
I Because he wobbled when he walked. 
"And men in two centuries and a half 
I Trod in the footsteps of that calf, 
For men are prone to go It blind, 
Along the calfways of the mind. 
And worV nway from sun to sun, 
To do as otU« r men h»Te done."

GAME 



GIRLS 



IN 



INITIAL 



Susquehanna's Co-Eds made a good 
beginning for their season by defeat- 
ing Sunbury Ilif^h. School girls by the 
decisive score ol 20-3 in Alumni Gym- 
nasium Friday evening before a large 
crowd. This was the first game of the 
season for both teams but they show- 
ed up well. 

From the first it was evident that 
the odds were with our girls. The 
Sunbury girls played well but soon 
showed that they were no match for 
our Co-Eds. 

During the fust quarter both teams 
guarded closely and C. Schoch was 
the only one to register any points. 
In the second quarter Susquehanna 
came back strong and Fetterolf suc- 
ceeded in caging two goals in rapid 
order followed by Parsing and C. 
Schoch. The first half ended with the 
score 10-0. 

In the third quarter Susquehanna 
succeeded in getting four more points 
and in the last quarter Capt. Fetter- 
olf brought down the house by caging 
three more. Our girls played a very 
good game and the prospects are good 
for a successful season. The lineup 
was as follows- 

Susquehanna. Sunbury. 

Fetterolf forward Wyant 

Persing forward Zowin 

C. Schoch center Clush 

Rearick guard Bowen 

L. Schoch guard Moore 

Field goals— Fetterolf 6; Persing, 
C. Schoch 3; Zewin. Foul goals — 
Zewin 1 out of 6. Substitutions, Sus- 
quehanna — Ayre for L. Schoch, Sig- 
worth for Ayre, Fisher for Sigworth, 
Allison for Persing, Persing for Al- 
lison, Botsford for Rearick, Mawrer

VICTOR HUGO ON HIS SEVEN- 
TIETH BIRTHDAY 
"Winter is on my head, and eternal 
spring is in my heart. The nearer 1 
approach the end, the plainer I hear 
around me the immortal symphonies of 
the worlds which invite me. It \b 
marvelous, yet simple. It is a fairy- 
tale, and it is a history. For half a 
century I have been writing my 
thoughts in prose, verse, history, 
philosophy, drama, romance, tradition, 
satire, ode, song — I have tried all. But 
I feel thatT have not said the thous- 
andth part of what is in me." 



An important meeting of thirty 
Lutheran ministers was held in Sun- 
bury on January 8. A pastor's asso- 
ciation was formed to include Luther- 
on ministers from Selinsgrove to 
Berwick and to Lock Haven, includ- 
ing some whose pastorates are short 
distances from the Susquehanna 
River. The association was formed 
in harmony with the coming merger of 
the General Synod, the General Coun- 
cil and United Synod in the South, 
into the United Lutheran Church in 
America. 

This association will meet monthly 
during nine months of the year. «Six 
of these meetings will be in the local 
sections at Sunbury, Bloomsburg an'l 
Williamsport, and three of them will 
be of the entire body at Sunbury. 

The association will include 85 min- 
isters whose parishes number 35.000 
confirmed members. . 

Dr. John B. Focht took nn active' 
part in the forming of this body, to; 
which all of the ten Lutheran minis-; 
ters, who are regular residents of' 
Selinsgrove, will belong. 

The officers elected are: president. 
Rev. Frank P. Manhart, Selinsgrove; 
secretary. Rev. W. F. Pfeifer, Selins- 
grove; treasurer. Rev. H. D. Spaeth, 
D.D., Williampsort.

Y. M. C. A. 

The Y. M. C. A. will hold its regular 
weekly meeting tonigth in the roonus. 
A very good speaker will address the 
boys. All should be present. 



The first section of the 1919 Lan- 
thorn went to press this week. As the 
term is to close before schedule time 
this year it is essential that the work 
on the year book be completed sooner 
than usual. The staff is working very 
hard to get all the material in so that 
the book can be issued May first. 

From all indications the book this 
year will be better than ever. It is 
10 be bound in a brown leather cover 
with the title stamped on in gold. The 
paper i.s exceptionally good and the 
workmanship excellent. There is to 
be a gold border around each page 
which adds much to the beauty of the 
book. 

It is to be dedicated to "Our Boys 
at the front" and will contain pictures 
of the Susquehanna Unit and many 
other views of interest to Alumni and 
students. Thcwriteups are catchy 
and the pictures interesting. In every 
way it will be a first class book and 
every Susquehanna student past and 
present wiy want a copy. 

The price will be three dollars. 
Though the class has not yet began 
to solicit orders the books can be 
ordered novt from the Business Man- 
ager, Mr. Papenfus. Delivery will be 
made about May 1st.

"TODAY'S PATRIOTISM" 

Seibert Hall Tuesday, Jan. 29th 



Must tell you of a tunny game I 
saw last evening. It was advertised 
as a basketball game between Lafay- 
ette College and our camp team. 
Having never seen a basketball game 
before these were my impressions of 
it. 

Proci'eding to the camp recreation 
building 1 selecti^d a scat at one end 
of the floor said to be the scene of 
the coming encounter, but could see 
absolutely no apparatus what ever wilh 
which a game could be played. How- 
ever I did see markings on the floor 
that simulated hieroglyphics and 
hence concluded that it must be Bome 
revived Indian game. 

The band then played several se- 
lections of very "Jaazy" mu.e'c, all th'j 
while fellows kept streaming in and 
sitting down until there were about 
l!iOO of us there. AH of a sudden a 
mighty yell went up as two groups 
of fellows came trotting out on the 
floor. I could see ' nothing to yell 
about tho as they were anly very or- 
dinary looking fellows except that 
their dress, or rather the lack of it 
was a disgrace to our present day 
civilization. If a policeman had been 
present I am sure Ihey would have 
been arrested. One fellow carried a 
leather covered ball in one arm that 
tho fellow sitting beside me said was 
a ba.sket ball, but it no more resem- 
bled a basket than did the targets 
thoniHelves at which the fellow.s t'hrew 
the ball. They were only iron rings 
attached to boards suspended from 
the ceiling and had fish nets attached 
to them. When the first fellow threw 
the ball and missed the ring I con- 
cluded that the main idea of the game 
was to land the ball safely in that net. 
but when the second man hit the ring 
to my utter bewilderment, the ball, 
instead of staying in the net, passed 
out the bottom, thus upsetting my 
former theory and once more had me 
guessing. 

Just then a man in white trousers 
and sweater (someone called him the 
referee) blew a whistle and the game 
was on. He threw the ball up in the 
air and the two men closest to it. In 
their anxiety to grab it just pushed it 
to one side and one of our men com- 
ing down that side of the floor caught 
it and then did the most stupid thing 
I ever heard of: instead of trying to 
hit one of the Lafayette men he threw 
it straight at one of our men. For- 
tunately he didn't get angry but start- 
ed running toward the other end of 
the floor, bouncing the ball on the 
floor all the while. If he would have 
put the ball under his arm and jus* 
run I think he would have gotten 
there sooner. 1 told the follow be- 
side me so, but he only smiled and 
muttered "stupid." It certainly is 
hard to convince some people. When 
the man with the ball did got to the 
other end of the floor he dropped 'he 
ball thru the ring and net and the 
crowd simply went crnzy; just as if 
Ty Cobb had hit a home run with the 
(Concluded on Pnge Three) 



LEAVMLENTOWN 

UNIT 574 LEAVE CAMP TO GO 
"OVER THERE. SERGT. AIKENS 
MADE LIEUTENANT 



Members of the Susquehanna Uni- 
versity Ambulance Corps arc on their 
way "over there." They left the Al- 
lentown camp last work. We are pro- 
hibited by military m-ressity from di- 
vulging from which American port 
they embarked or where they are to 
go. The men were only allowed to 
send word to their friend.s that they 
were about to leave and soon after- 
v,ard they marched out of camp. They 
have been in training a< the Allentowa 
camp since they enlisted last June. 

The unit left with a new "top" ser- 
geant. Sergeant Aikens who has 
been with them since they first en- 
listed has been commissioned as First 
Lieutneant and it is not definitely 
known who has been promoted to his 
place altho it is regarded very likely 
that Ralph Witmer has been promoted 
and that Sweeley and Farrel are the 
second sergeants. 

Severiil of the boys who were at first 
in the unit have been transferred to 
other sections so that we are unable 
it this time to give a correct roster 
of the unit. Several are in the band, 
umie are in the Hospital section 
while others are in other departments. 

Teichart, who had been home where 
he was confined with pneumonia was 
able to return to the camp the latter 
part of the week but discovered that 
his comrades had left He does not 
yet know what he will do but is try- 
ing to be transferred to the State 
Unit. 

It is hard for us here to think of 
our classmates away from us but we 
know that they will all do their duty 
and our best wishes and prayers are 
with them wherever they may be. 



A DREAM OF SHAKESPEARE 

"To be or not to be. that is the 

question." 
Like "Hamlet" I once made the sug- 
gestion. 
As out I walked, I met a dog (, 
And raised my ann to strike it, 
W'hen I heard a voice exclaiming, 

"Hold!" 
I answered, "As you like it." 
As on I walked, a loving pair 1 met; 
I soon discovered it was "Romeo and 

Juliet." 
"Two Gentlement from Verona," all 

diessed in their bei(*t 
Caught a good drenching while out in 

a "Tempest." 
They sat by my fire, hung their coats 

on a nail. 
While I related to the m 'A Winter's 

Tale." 
They stayed until tho "Twelfth Night," 
Until the storm had ceased it.s terrors. 
They made "Much Ado About Noth- 
ing," 
Which proved a "Comedy of Errors." 
Then came "Othello" and lago, loo, 
Which brought to my mind "The Tam 

Ing of the Shrew." 
Like "Richard (he Third" 1 awoke, 
And s' range everything did seem. 
At last 1 realized my situation — 
It was anly a "Midsummer Night's 
Dream."

UNKNOWN HEROES 

"Full many a flower is born to blush 
unseen." 

We have many heroes and much 
hero worship. We are dazzled by the 
glamor of arms, and admire the Cid, 
Bayard, and Richard Coeur de Lion, 
we are thrilled hy the daring feats of 
countless war heroes. We are stir- 
red no less by the dauntless exploit « 
of discoverers, explorers, and adven 
turers; be it Stanley searching the 
darkest nooks of Africa , or Peary 
traversing the barren white Sahara of 
the North. We are inspired by the 
heroic struggles of inventors like 
Jenner, the father of vaccination, and 
of legions of other great men. We 
are touched by the gentle heroism of 
John Maynard, Grace Darling, and 
the little boy in Holland who plugged 
a hole in the dike with his tiny fist j 
and saved his country from the rav- 
ages of a flood. 

Heroes, of course, are exceptional; 
that is why we honor them. Of the 
millionfold mass of mankind not many 
rise to that heiglit of true '■'< '•'^'^m 
in word, deed, or suffering. Neverthe- 
less, there are far more heroes than 
we know. Violets bloom in the shady 
valleys, the edeweis.s i.s found high in 
the Alps, where man can hardly climb, 
and beautiful flowers wither, unseen 
by 

unnoticed in the dreiiiy regions near 
the Pole. So there are, and always 
hare been, flowers of humanity In un- 
known ages, in unknown lands, or in 
hidden pla(;(>s, shooting up from the 
plains of the people. Unknown 
Heroes. 

Unknown heroes there are of civil- 
izations gone by and forgotten, of nii- 
tions long dismembered and ruined, 
of continents whose past is shrounded j 
in deep mystery. Perhaps Mother' 
Earth will someday turn up secrets 
of other countries an-l their civiliza- 
tions, as she has told a little about 
Egypt. Babylon and Assyria. Still 
many a name once famed and f(;ared. 
will never again be formed by human 
lips; many a hero of old is doomed 
to remain forever unknown. 

But we need not bother about such 
unknown heroes as the leaders of the 
Indian invasion into this country, the 
heroeB of those «'arly explorations, 
conquests, and pionetr days. There 
are unknown heroes much nearer 
and dearer to us, whom we shall men- 
tion, if not by name, at least by class. 
There are the unknown heroes of 
war. Every one knows that, after all. 
It is not the hls:hly decorated and 



zly I'aco and expansive chest, who it 
the real heroe of the campaign, but 
usually* rather some lean lieutenant, 
and then the nir.n in the raulvs, lu 
who wades thru mud and blood, does 
the dir.y work, and bears the brunt 
of all but tlie glory. Then there an 
imcounted heroes in the hospitals 
and at home, people generally so 
modest in tlu-ir heroic sacrifices and 
suiferings that their heroism is greate)' 
than that of the worshipped dare- 
devil aeronauts. They are the real 
heroes of the v.'ar, and yi^t unknown, 
and too often unrecognized and un- 
appreciated. 

So it is at all times, in every place 
and circumstance. Rndisson is for- 
gotten, Marquette remembered. We 
all know of Fulton, few of Johnny 
Fitch. One may work as hard and 
suffer as much as another; at length 
Fortune smiles on the one and frowns 
on the other: then men smile on the 
one and frown on the other. For ev- 
ery victor there is a victim. Not only 
Champollion strove to interpret the 
hieroglyphs, Seyfarth did too. But 
the world crowns not the hero that 
fails, be his efforts ever so heroic. 
One wins and is a hero. The otbc 
loses and is unknown. 

It often seems so discouraging. A 
young man was sent as a missionary 
to the Apache Indians in Arizona. 
Thirteen years he spent in the hot ' 
country, and a lot more. He gave 
away free Bibles, and when he had no 
more, his own, and five and ten-dollar ^ 
bills besides. He spent all his salary, 
but not on himself, noi on his family, j 
his wife and little boy, with whom he 
was happy even in the blazing desert, i 
Then the climate told; his wife died 
of consumption, the boy also. The 
missionary, himself consumptive, had 
to resign and find work as a laborei 
on a fruit farm. He was cheerful and 
kind, even when he was told that he 
ought rather to have died at his post 
than resign. An unknown hero. 

Yes, Charles Reode is right: "Not 
a day passes over the earth but men 
and women of no note do gi-eat deeds, 
speak great words, and suffer noble 
sorrows." 

But why are so many heroes un- 
known? Because their heroism is 
not of the showy, blustering type, but 
a plain, everyday, commonplace sort 
of thing. They are something like 
your mother. She doesn't look like a 
heroine, there's nothing of the Joan 
of Arc about her, nor anything sug- 
gestive of the Battalion of Death; no 
man, along the equator, and die , ^^^ ^^ ^^^^ ^^ ^ ^,^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ ^.^pj^

devoted. She is a type of the un- 
known hero. The unknown hero dop.s 
his duly cheerfully, not looking for 
praise of for a writeup in the paper, 
not expecting a monument or memor- 
ial; glad for recognition and apprecia- 
tion, if it comes to him in a quiet son 
of way; but not at all disappointed or 
discoui-aged if hy chance it does not 
come. 

LOVE AND LIGHT 
There are many kinds of love, as 

many kmds of light. 
And every kind of love makes a glory 

in the night. 
There is love that stirf, the heart, and 

love that gives it rest, 
But tin; love that lead.s life upward is 

the noblest and the best.

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 
The Y. M. C. A. meeting last Tues- 
day evening was led by Baer. A good 
crowd was present to hear Rev. Sas- 
saman, of Northumberland, who ad 
dressed the local organization. By 
way of introduction he stated that he 
appreciated the splendid attendance. 
It is always worth while to lay aside 
hooks and other work to feed the sou! 
in Y. M. C. A. worship. We are ever 
conscious of our physical needs,— 
hunger and cold— but our spiritual 
needs are not so obvious and hence 
are often neglected. The theme of his 
talk was "War and Religion." As 
much as we dislike war and are cons- 
cious of its terrible ravages yet are 
we also conscious of the good that it 
nevertheless accomplishes. That 
cause which is Impelled by right 
motives, uses right means and is right 
may rightly invoke divine aid and 
such we believe our couse to be. 
President Lincoln declared a day of 
prayer after the battle of Bull Run 
when all Christians should invoke di- 
vine blessing on the armies of the 
North and on this day a band of 
skeptics also met to pray giving for 
their reason that they believed that 
skepticism had no place in time of 
war. America is blessed with an 
abundance of material things and has 
often unjustly been accused of ma- 
terialism. Wealth may be acquired 
by creative industry, fraud or theft. 
But stolen goods damn the hands tha' 
steal. The war has revealed America's 
true spirit— a spirit of sacrifice and 
'int of materialism. Patriotism has 
sl^In self interest. America's motto 
la "Serve, Save, Sacrifice." She haw 
transmuted invention, gold, trade and 
comfort into patriotism. Frivolit% 
signifies decline; seriousness, ascen 
dcncy. The great musicians, poelf 
and artists of the world worked ser 
iously. And now America Is serious 
America is awakening to the cost o 
freedom. Our ancestors conquerei! 
the wilds of America for us. Anf 
America has developed until it has be 
come a synonmyn for opportunity 
And America is fighting for the right 
Lincoln was concerned, not with 
whether God was on his side a. 
whether he was on God's side. Wai 
is not all suffering but has some glory 
And America will win the war and gei 
the glory. 

The management of The Susquehan- 
na would appreciate It if all subscrib 
era would pay up their subacrlptious 
aoon. It takes money to run a paper. 



SUSQUEHANNA U5AAC 

WRITES LETTER 

(Continued from I'irst Page) 
bases full. I couldn't see the joke, 
bu'. yelled anyhow, so my partner be- 
side me wouldn't call me stupid again. 
Tlie ball was then tossed up and 
the whole crazy proceedings started 
~)ver anew: It must become awfully 
monotonous to the players, and tha' 
referee man "was certainly the most 
impudent bloke I ever saw: he didn't 
)lay at all, never even tried to get 
ho ball, yet had more to say about 
the game than the players. They- 
'istened to him better than to a 
colonel in the army. Why, at one 
ime when two of the players had a 
little boxing encounter and I stood up 
in my chair and cheered them on, the 
'^rowd all glared at me and the referee 
had the nerve to blow his whistle and 
yell "foul." I knew he was wrong for 
;t is perfectly legitimate to hit a man 
'n the face while boxing, but when I 
started out on the floor to explain to 
Lhe referee someone pulled me back. 
I wasn't mad hut just wanted our team 
^o get a fair deal. 

Just after that a Lafayette man shot 
he foul goal and the referee wouldn't 
permit our men try to prevent it. The 
game lasted 40 minutes and Lafayette 
won 26-25. I don't see how they figur- 
ed it out, for three of the Lafayett" 
men were hurt and none of ours were, 
but the referee said they won and 
everyone, of course, but myself be- 
lieved him. I didn't try to argue this 
time for I knew it would be useless. 
Then as a crowning achievement, our 
team pulhid off the biggest piece of 
Stupidity of (he evening. They gave 
a yell for the team that had beaten 
them. 

Con you Imagine it? It seemed In- 
credible to me for I had never seen it 
in any contest before In all the 
prize fights I ever witnessed I never 
saw the man who was knocked out, 
get up and yell Rah! Rah! Rah! for 
his opponent who was responsible for 
his being all mashed up. An utterly 
stupid rediculous and exasperating 
gome. 

For news of the camp life see "Col- 
liers" for Jan 5th and the January 
"American." 

This letter was written shortly be- 
fore they sailed for foreign soil.

THE FOOTPATH TO PEACE 

A Thought for the Opening Year. 

To be glad of life, because it gives 
you the chance to love and to work 
and to play and to look up at the start; 
to be satisfied with your possessions, 
but not contented with yourself until 
you have made the best of them; to 
despise nothing In the world except 
falsehood and meanness, and to fear 
nothing except cowardise; to be gov 
srned by your admirations rather 
than by your disgusts; to ^iovet noth- 
iilfj that is your neighbor's except bis 
vindness of heart and gentleness of 
manners; to think seldom of your 
enemies, often of your friends, and 
every day of Christ; and to spend as 
much time as you can, with body and 
with spirit. In God's out-of-doors— 
hese are little guide-posts on the 
footpath of peace.— Henry Van Dyke. 



Don't forget the Y. M. C. A, lecture 
course. Get your season tickets now. 
Only seventy-five cents for all the 
course. Single admissiona will cost »

JOIS AND 6L0IS FROM 
IHE COLLtGlCiPUS 

Registrar W. T. Horton wishes to 
state, referring to the losses at Sus- 
quehanna University due to the ex- 
reme cold weather, that they were 
very much magnified. While the las- 
ses will be considerable, yet much 
less than the statement made in last 
week's Susquehanna. 

rrof. E, M. Brungart attended the 
Snyder County Directors' convention 
held at Middleburg, last Monday and 
Tuesday. 



The Freshman basketball team will 
make their debut tonight, when they 
will meet the strong Selinsgrove High 
School team. The game is sure to be 
a fast and interesting one, and a large 
attendance is desired.

There is no doubt about it that we 
are now living in the days of real 
sport. During the papt week it was 
no uncommon sight to see many of the 
students sltating down to the river, 
and from there many interisting trips 
were made. Sunbury and Port Trev- 
orton seemed to be the favored plac- 
es. Then too there were many who 
took advantage of the coasting on Col- 
lege Avenue, the worthy theologs 
bringing out their bob sled, the "Old 
Reliable."

SONG OF THE DECANTER 

There was an old decanter, 
and its mouth was gaping 
wide; the rosy wine , 

had ebbed away 
and left 
lis crys- 
tal side; 
and the wind 
went humming, 
humming; 

up and 
down the 
sides it flew 
and through the 
reedlike 
hollow nrck 
the wildest notes it 
blew. I placed it in the 
window, where the blast was 
blowing free, and fancied that its 
pale mouth sang the queerest strains 
to me. "They tell me — puny con- 
querors! — the Plague has slain his ten, 
and War his hundred thousands of the 
very best of men; but 1"— 'twas thus 
the bottle spoke — "but I have con- 
quered more than all your famous con- 
querors, so feard and famed of yore. 
Then come, ye youths and maidens, 
come dring from out my cup, the 
beverage that dulls the brain and 
burns the spirit up: that puts to 
shame the conquerors that slay 
their scores below; for this has 
deluged millions with the lava 
tide of woe. Though in the 
path of battle, darkest waves 
of blood may roll; yet while 
I killed the body 1 have 
dammed the very soul. 
The cholera, the sword, 
such ruin never wrought. 
as I in mirth or malice, on 
the innocents have brought. 
And still 1 breath upon them, 
and they shrink before my breath; 
and year by year my thousands tread

VERY HARD AND FAST GAME 



Large Crowd Witness Conflict With Mt. 
Carmel in Which Our Girls Prove Easy 



W 



inners 



Mount Carmel High School girls fell i guard and at no time had the High 
before the onslaught of our Co-eds on i School girls a chance to shoot. Per- 
Friday night when they were handed , sing and Woodruff in spite of the 
the short end of a 34-7 score. Our strong guarding of the Mt. Carmel 



girls showed w onderf ul form and altho 
playing the game undei strange rules 
they romped away with the visitors in 
great style. Spaulding rules were 
played and it was the first game wit- 
nessed by local fans under thesfe rules. 

From the beginning it was evident 
that Susquehanna was too much for 
the Mt. Carmel lassies. A large 
crowd witnes.scd the game and enthus 
iasm ran high. Everytime a Susque- 
hanna Co-ed secured a point it was 
met with cheers of delight. The stu- 
dent band was on hand and added 
much to the game. As a whole the 
game was an example of clean playing 
and the usual squabbling which us- 
ually occurs in girls' pames was lack- 
ing. The team this year is considered 
the best that ever represented Sus- 
quehanna and indications point to a 
most successful season. 

Sustiuehanua scored shortly after 
the whistle blew when Fetterolf cag- 
ed a goal from a difficult angle and 
after that the co-eds scored almost at 
will. C. Schoch and Fetterolf display- 
ed marvelous team work and took the 
ball down the floor repeatedly and suc- 
ceeded in scoring. Rearick and L. 
Schoch played a' brilliant game at

team suceeded in caging several 
points. Miss Woodruff did remarkably 
well in foul shooting. Haas and Raup 
were the only ones on the visitors line- 
up who succeeded in caging two ' 
pointers. Mt. Carmel must be given 
credit for putting up a game fight altho 
they were completely outclassed. 

Next Friday night Lewisburg will be

Doubtless many of our readers 
know something of the United States 
Employment Service, that branch of 
our National Government operating 
some eighty-five public (free) em- 
ployment offices thruout the United 
States. We believe, however, that 
very few know that at one of these 
i offices, that at Chicago, Illinois, a sec- 
tion has been set apart of the sole 
benefit of professional men and wo- 
men, known as the Teachers and Pro- 
fessional Service Division. Thru this 
division the Government endeavors to 
find suitable positions for teachers 
and professional engineens (drafts- 
men, civil, mechanical, electrical en- 
gineers, chemists, metallurgists, etc.) 
and suitable persons for school officers 
and employers needing .such help. In 
a few words this division is a Teach- 
Haaa ers' and Engineering Agency, operat- 
Raup ed by the United States Government.

proved himself an apt student as well 
as an enthusiastic participant in the 

f '■ Various college activities, and athletics 
and graduated in 1916, the youngest 
member of his class. 

Upon leaving school he entered a 
pharmacy store in his home city, 
Johnstown, to secure the experience 
necessary for admission to a college 
of Pharmacy. Later he secured a 
position with the Cambria Steel Cor- 
poration as brakeman on the Cambria 
railway so that he might be able to | g(,hool team m 
go on with his education. It was I 
while thus engaged that he fell from 
his train and was fatally injured by 
ita passing over his body — death fol- 
lowing later at the hospital.

Dr. P. B. Prentis, acting director of 
employment for Illinois, under whose 
jurisdiction this division is operated, 
reports that durng the past year it 
has been found impossible to find 
enough teachers to supply the iifcd, 
and many attractive positions thru- 
out the United States have been un- 
filled for this reason. It has frequent- 
ly happened, however, that immediate- 
ly after a position had been reported 
filled thru other sources, a suitable 
candidate would effect registration. 
Of course it was then too late to nom- 
inate the teacher for that particular 
position. Dr. Prentis earnestly hopes 
that such occasion.s may be quite in- 
frequent during the 1918-19 appoint- 
ment season. This can only be accom- 
plished by every available teacher 
being registered in the Division be- 
fore the opening of the appointment 
season. We therfore suggest that if 
you expect to be available for a new 
position for the next year that you 
write t Dr. Prentis immediately for a 
registration blank. Then, when the 
appointment season opens in April or 
May, your record will be complete and 
the division may be able to nominate 
you for the first suitable position re- 
ported. Registration in the Teachers 
and Professional Service Division will 
also benefit you in other ways for, 
should you learn of a position for 
which you would like to apply thru 
any other source, the Division will, if 
asked, send copies of your confiden- 
tial record to the school officer to 
whom application is made. 

Any applications intended for this 
divisin shuld be addressed "Teachers 
and Proft'K.Hional Service Division, U.S. 
Employment Service. 845 South Wa- 
bash Avenue, Chicago, Illinois." Ap- 
plicants for registration should Indi-

"My children, clear your mmds of 
cant." — Dr. Johnson Shelley says: 
"Mankind is fond of inventing certain 
solemn and sounding expressions 
which appear to convey much, and in 
reality mean little — wcrds that are 
the proxies of absent thoughts." That 
i.s one phase of cant. The other phase 
is brought out in Carlysle's word.s: 
"Cant is itself a double-distilled lie, 
the second power of a lie." 

Our age is steeped in a quagmire of 
cant, cant in all its forms, cant in 
common social life, cant in the pro- 
fessions, cant in all the relations be- 
tween man and men. We may detest 
cant, yet we all make use of It. We 
are so accustomed to cant that we 
are astounded when one dares to say 
he is bored by Beethoven, Mill on. 
Raphael, St. Gaudens. At the same 
time we admire this "virtue of intre- 
pidity," which has the courage to as- 
sert itself in a world professing 
aesthetic delight, piping its Ahs. and 
Ohs! We may pity sncb. as men's 
artistic sen.se; but, granting snum 
cuique, we concede that it is really 
nobler to be fearlessly honest than to 
follow the driveling myriads, chant- 
ing cant. 

Have you ever paused to consider 
the dead conventionalities we employ 
in our daily life? We parade the 
streets with our lil)tral "Ilow-are 
you's" "Happy New Years!" "Good 
Mornings!" But are we always in- 
terested in the health and prosperity 
of the persons addressed? We never 
fail to superscribe our letters, "My 
dear sir," "My very dear Sir:" we 
never fail to subscribe them, "Your 
ot)edient servant," "Very truly yours." 
Still, is It not often the case that we 
all but detest the addressed? Yet, 
if he. with but a single word, should 
give expression to doubt concerning 
our sincerity, our temper would rise 
to a white heat of indignant resent- 
ment. We are the recipients of a 
trifiing kindness; we exhau.st the 
whole vocabulary of Gratitude (feel- 
ing perhaps, in our hearts a keen 
humiliation because we must accept 
the favor). Our benevolent benefac- 
tor is fully as voluble in disclaiming 
any merit in the grant (which, per 
liaps, has been grudged, which he will 
ever consider as a sacrifice.) Such 
cant may be argued necessary; with- 
out it the external world would be a 
veritable world of boors. 

Pick up that newspaper! Here, 
read liow tliey extol ilie "phllanthro 
pist" the "public benefactor" for the 
latest donation towards some charita 
ble enterprise -when it was really 
given because the doii'T could not get 
off for lesH." Then lh<' stereotyptd 
"'brinks." "grateful acknowledge- 



ment." "compliment" of your butcher, 
' baker, candlestick maker! The "last 
appearances," "Very last appearanc- 
es." "very positively last appearanC" 
OS," of the concert star, the band, and 
Uhe circus! — "Words, words, words." 
Take your afterdinner speaker. Fus- 
sing, fidgeting, he arises; with ner- 
vousness and faltering spoach he 
apologi:5es for his lack of preparation 
to meet the unexpected demand. But 
ho can't deceive you with such a cant; 
you know that such an apology is 
merely the preface to an "impromptu" 
weeks-in-laborous-prepa ration. Very 
similar to this is the traditional "Oh 
how sudden!" "How unexpected!" of 
Idushing Bridget. 

One should expect that our literary 
men weic free from cant. Are they? 
Go to any library and peep into some 
"Prefaces." How they apologize for 
the "meanness" of their "humble ef- 
forts" Reasons innunieral)le they ad- 
vance for "inflicting their works on 
the publlc—they really say "inflict," 
when most often the real reason was, 
perhaps, the mere plea.sure of writing, 
'he hope for some distinction, for a 
little money. They Invite criticisin. 
Still, if the criticism s unfavorable, 
•hey roar, "Spite! Envy! Jealously!" 
The cant doesn't ahviiys end in the 
^'Prefaces" either. You will often 
Hnd pages, whole chapters, if not en- 
■ ire books, of nothing but "words., 
words, words," structure, no life; 
form, no soul; abundance of fine 
writing, no Ideas! 

The pre-Cowper period in English 
Literature, you will remember, 
abounds In such productions. Poetry. 
"instead of being the vehicle of lofty 
and noble sentiments, had degenerated 
into a mere trick of ait, a hand-organ 
operation, in which one man could 
grind out tunes as wi 11 as another," 
In those days of eternally "rosy" wine 
and "balmy sleep" the sun was always 
"Phoebus" or the "orb of day," and 
the moon was "Diana" or "the reful- 
gent lamp of night." Carriages were 
"harnessed pomps"; houses were 
"piles," humble or stately, the wind 
was always "a gentle zei)hyr." All 
women were "nymphs," and "Naides" 
were as plentiful in the streams as 
fish. When a youth fell In love, 
"Cupid laid in ambush in the ladles 
eye, and from that fortress shot a dart 
at th>" unhappy youth, who straight- 
way began to writhe tmder his wound, 
;ind found no ease until the lady was 
l)leas<'d to smile on him." Small 
v.ondir that men gave a sigh of re- 
lief when Cowper struck the prevail- 
ing literary cant, with Its neuseatlng, 
theradbare mythological allusionii a 
vital blow with a Ian^:uage virile, UD-

CAN'T— WHAT IT IS AND WHY WE 
MUST RID OURSELVES OF IT 

(Continuer from First Page) 
affected, and straightfurward. 

Leaving the field oi literature for 
that of politics, you will find yourself 
choking in an atmosphere dense with 
"words, words, words." The whole 
substratum of international politics is 
the veriest cant. It needed not the 
last years to unearth this fart. Al- 
ready many years ago an ambassador 
was defined as " gentleman sent a- 
broad to lie for his country." Can you 
beat it? Cant-slingers by profession! 
One riiQjiarch styles himself "His Most 
Christian Magesty," another, "De- 
fender of the Faith," titles often so 
meaningless that even the humblest 
cotter and lowest serf spout their 
vulgar banter.— The pressure of pub- 
lic opinion forces the autocrat to hand 
down from his sky-tickling throne a 
"My Well-Beloved" proclamation. 
Well-beloved? Never! "Herd . . . 
fickle, proud, fantastic, vain," that's 
the Intensity of his benign affection. 
George I obtains the crown of Eng- 
land by an act of Parliament. In his 
first address to the august assembly he 
has the impudent boldn( ss to speak 
of ascending the "throne of his an- 
cestors"! And our politicians, who 
has offices by wire-pulling, graft and 
boodle, publicly thank tiieir fellow' 
citizens for their "voluntary and un- 
biased suffrages!" 

A most repugnant form of cant is 
the profession of extreme humility by 
men full of arrogant pride. Pope 
Gregory VII, the per.-^oniflcation of 
haughtiness heavenhinh, was determ- 
ined to claim the title fcvvus servoruni 
Die. Try to harmonize that with 
Canossa, with the demand that the 
Christian kings of F:urope kiss his 
toes and liold his stirrups !— Yes, and 
the luQUisition was the Holy Office!" 
"Catherine of Russia was alway.s 
mouthing the language of piety and 
benevol(>nco, especially when about to 
wage war or do some rascally deed. 
Louis the Fourteenth!— paroxysms of 
repentance and devotion were always 
the occasion for fresh outrages on th" 
Huguenots; and Napoleon was always 
prating of his love for peace, and of 
being compelled to fight by his quarrel- 
some neighbors." The guillotine's 
dull clang blends wondrously well with 
the chiming chord of "Lilierty, Eaual- 
ity. Fraternity"! One of Robespier- 
re's co-cnt-throats rears doves, because 
"the contemplation of their Innocence 
consoles him for the wickedness of 
men," "Good heavens, Madam! have 
you no humanity? another bellows 



out to a distracted woman who steps 
on his dog's tail while lelreating from 
his presence — after pleading in vain 
lor husbands life. 

Similar is the cant of most moral 
philosaphers, as exemplified by om 
of the greatest-great. Seneca. Hi.'^ 
ethical writings breathe a spirit 
which many would ascribe to the in- 
fluences of Chrislianily. Read in the 
liglU of his life, however, they are 
only so many words. Seneca parades 
a contempt for the vanity of riches, 
writes brilliantly in piaise of pover;y, 
the equivalent of fifteen million dol- 
lars in his coffers! He denounces ex- 
tortion with virtuous anger — he builds 
his famous museum garden with the 
"gold and tears of Numidia"! He 
preaches on the purity of morals — is 
himself publicly accused of the great- 
est immorality! He writes on clem- 
ency—Nero is. his enlightened pupil! 
Uhlhorn asserts that he composed the 
letter in which Nero justified before 
the Senate the murdei of his own 
mother! 

Art and religion also have their 
cant. But why bore you by descant- 
ing at length on cant? You know 
what cant is, in all its forms, nothing 
but "sounding brass and tinkling 
cymbal"; whether it be the flummery 
and inanities of "words, words, words" 
or the mechanical panoting of mean- 
ingless conventionalities and twad- 
dling claptrap; whether it be the ly- 
ing in traditionary formulas or the 
wilful conscious insincerity of speech, 
where the tongue no longer is the in- 
dex of the heart, and where language 
is but a mere "camouflage." In the 
1 first place cant is most often a mark 
of supreme shallownees, detestable; 
in the other case it is the mark of de- 
ceitfulness, at _al times abhorrible. 
"My children, clear your minds of 
cant"— "Can" it!

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 
In the absence of the engaged speak- 
er the program committee called on 
two theolog members for talks at the 
Y, M. C. A. meeting. Warner led the 
devotions which consisted of several 
songs, the reading ot the 103 Psalm 
and sentence prayers by the mem- 
bers. Goss and Shobert rendered a 
peautiful cornet-clarinet solo. Har- 
kins was then called on to speak. His 
talk was along patriotic lines urging 
the members that they should keep 
strong, physically, mentally and mor- 
ally and do their part at home that 
j we may not bring disgrace to our boys 
at the front, and that they who shed 
their blood on the fields of France 
and die for the cause of democracy 
may not have died in vain. Crossland 
then spoke from the narrative of 
'David going out to fight Goliath. He 
recounted the coming of the boy David 
to the camp on an errand to his 
l)rothers, his witiessing the challange 
of Goliath and his acceptance, his 
trial of Saul's armor which proved to 
be too large and cumbersome for the 
youth. It was from this last that he 
drew the lesson— that every man 
should use his own armor, should uso 
'his own talents and be himself and 
I not an imitator. The president made 
some announcements and the meeting 
was closed with a song and the pray- 
ing together of the Lord's prayer. 
The attendance was small and the 
secretary took the following census of 
those present. Of the 30 present. 4 
were seminarians, 4 juniors, 3 sopho- 
mores, 11 freshmen, 5 preps and 3 
specials. The fraternity and non-frat 
men were equal In number. 20 of the 
30 were classical students or theologs.

Last Friday morning in chapel, Dr. 
Aikens referred to the mat;er of con- 
serving in every way po.ssible. Under 
the existing war conditions, the ele- 
ment of patrioti.sm involved should 
be observed by everyone, for the per- ' 
iod of our national crisis. Each stu- 
dent should feel it his or her patriotic 
duty to help out in this matter as far 
as possible. 



Registrar Horton has recovered from 
j his recent collapse during the freezing 
season, and is now busy ijreparing for 
a much needed vacation. He will 
leave shortly for San Bernardino, 
California, where Mrs. Horton is 
.spending the winter. 



We are glad to no'.e that the Sus- 
quehanna weather man is again on the 
job. For quite a while the matter of 
floating the weather signals has been 
neglected, and the fart that we can 
again see them afloat, is surely satis 
factory to all.

STIRRING LECTURE ON WARTIME 
SUBJECT TONIGHT AT 8:15— AN 
INTERESTING SPEAKER 



Ln.st vrcdiiOHua;- morning at tho 
chaiM'l f^i-rvice a representative of tlie 
International rroliibition Association 
was present and spolve. He outlined 
the work of the Association in the 
great struggle to inal^e the nation dry. 
He told of the pioat value of the stu- 
dents in the reL-( nt dry fipht in Ohio. 
Over 1,000 students gave their ener- 
gies to help in the great flghl. The 
the victory was lost thru some "Cin- 
cinnati niistalus" yet the people of 
Ohio feel they have won a victory and 
a great deal of tlie credit is given to 
the student volunteers. These were 
trained for their tasks in study clas- 
ses organized under the direction of 
the I. P. A. 

- The association does not require any 
pledges in ioiinn?, nor does 'u limit 
. its membership to men. It is open to 
all and it hopes that after a study of 
the evils of liquor the student will he 
ready to help in tlie great battle. 

He gave another talk in the Gym 
after the military drill class and at 
that time the local organization was 
perfected. Over forty members join 
ed and the following were elected to 
fdl the offices: Allbeck, president; 
Persing, vice-president; Shoaf, secre- 
tary and treasurer; Janson, reporter. 

It is the aim of the organization to 
organize a class in the university for 
the study of the problem. Several 
years ago there was a claims of this 
kind here and great benefit was deriv- 
ed from it, In addition to this regular 
college class there will be monthly 
meetings and debates. It i.s hoped 
that there will be some debater, from 
Susquehanna enter the State contest. 

Susquehanna's enrollment in this 
worthy cause is above the average of 
the other colleges but there is still 
room for improvement. Why not 
make this a 100 percent affair? Why 
shouldn't every student join it. The 
dues are only fifty cents a year one- 
half for the national association and 
one-half for the state fund. This In- 
cludes a subscription to the Intercol- 
legiate Statesman, the official organ 
of the I. P. A. 



1-UTHER, HERALD OF DEMOCRACY 
"Luther was the unconscious herald 
of our Democracy, farced into war by 
Luther's now essentially anti-Luther- 
an nation. We do well to honor Luth- 
er and thus to enthuse our resolve to 
compel Germany's return to peace 
that can be permanent only In her re- 
turn to Luther's principles."— The 
Outlook. 



THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF A 

COLLEGE EDUCATION 

Among the noble ambition.s in the 
heart of man is the one that urges 
and stimulates to acquire wisdom. 
This idea is very aptly expressed by 
that wise man in Holy Writ when he 
said "'Happy is the man that flndelh 
wisdom and the man (hat getteth un- 
derstanding, for she is the tree of life 
to them that lay hold on her; and 
happy is everyone that retaineth her. ' 
Indeed to get wisdom is to acquire 
that power which gives life more 
abundantly. Those who have been the 
greatest benefactors of mankind: who 
have been the leaders in church and 
state, were people of scholarly attain- 
ments. They secured their powers by 
d;i:„-.nt!y acquiring wisdom, thru a 
persistent application to study. The 
call of the present is just as incessant 
as ever before for men and women 
with thought power, who will use it 
for the benefit of maknind. 

But in order to be wise: to acquire 
this thought power, it is necessary to 
devote years to study in these fields 
which are the sources of wisdom. The 
attainments thru elementary and sec- 
ondary education are not adequate 
enough to make the normal student 
highly eOicient in thought or enable 
in a broad sense to secure the true 
appreciation of life. There is a tend- 
ency in some quarters today to make 
this attainment all that is necessary 
for a business career: and an appre- 
ciation of a well proportioned life. 
However, there are encouraging evi- 
dences in many places to correct this 
fallacy: and students are urged to 
continue their education by attending 
colleges. 

Well informed people admit the in- 
adequacy of a high school education 
to enaljle one to think broadly and 
deeply. And thereby to a large de- 
gree minimizing that fuller apprecia- 
tion of life: we ask, what superior at- 
tainment does a college education of- 
fer? The chairs of instruction in the 
different fields of study are occupied 
by men who have become masters in 
thft, subjects which tliey teach. The 
subjects for study prior to college 
come to a transaction stage at this 
time: there is infused the artistic 
element. This diverges into the two 
principal avenues of scholaristic at- 
tainment, the Classical and Scientific. 
Men and women pursuing these cours- 
es for a period of four years, being 
taught by men who are masters, re- 
ceive a degree of Bachelor. In other

the bluffers, particulatly the former. 
Nor is there a student more miserable j 
in the college. 

Now a Bluffer is always a Slacker, 
but he is one who is able to get away j 
with it most of the time. A Slacker j 
is no better. He is just an ordinary j 
creature, who, like his friend, the 
Bluffer, finds his work rather Iieavy 
and hopes to escape but he has not 
the gift of covering ignorance or as- 
suming knowledge. The plain Slacker 
probably has more- ahead than the 
Bluffer, because he is so often brought 
to shame by his uncovered ignorance, 
that the chances are he will be con- 
verted from the error of his way 
while the Bluffer will not turn. If all 
the misspent effort and gloomy re- 
flections were used in direct study 
either one would make a good student. 
It is not a question which is the better 
to tal<e as an example, or which. is 
the more honest, but rather which one 
deserves more of our disgust.— The 
Midland.

The be.qt game of year., „iis .-staged 
in the Alumni Gymnasium on Satur- 
day niglit v.hen the Lewisburg High 
School girls lost to the Susquelianna 
Co-eds by the score of 13-6. Boya' 
rule.s were played and the g;uiie was 
fitsi and exciting from begimiin;;- to 
end. 

The Lewisburg quintet came here 
undefeated, having won < v< ry game 
played this year and were confident of 
victory. With them came a large dele- 
,?aiion of rooters v.iio had come to 
witness another victory for their col- 
ors but alas they were doomed to dis- 
api)ointment. This is the third consec- 
utive victory for our coeds who are 
playing excellent ball. 

A large crowd attended the game 
and excitement r.in higli because the 
outcome of the game was not evident' 
till the final whistle was blown. The 
close guarding of both teams made a 
high score impossible. 

The game started with a rush and 
the ball was kept in the Susquehanna 
territory for some time. Then it was 
played back and forth neither team 
heins able to score. During the first 
part of the .second quarter Susciuehan- 
na secured one point on a foul which 
was the first tally of the gome. Our 
coed.s then succeeded in caging a two- 
pointer which was quickly followed by 
one by Lewisburg which brought the 
first half to a close with tlie score 3-2, 
The second half began with our 
girls shooting two goals in succe.^^- 
sion. Lewisburg repeated and for a 
time things looked black for our las- 
sies as Lewisburg kept the ball near 
their basket, but thru the excellent 
guarding on the part of Susquehanna, 
Lewisburg could not get a chance to 
[.shoot. Lewisburg failed to score after 
this wliili' our coeds added six moro 
points to their score. The Lewisburg 
girls played a wonderful game and 
their dribbling was remarkable. 

Next Saturday our Coeds vill meet 
Williarasport High School at Williams- 
port.

THE REFORIWATION AND LUTHER 
The Reformation of the Church in 
the Sixteenth century constituted not 
only a grand epoch in the history of 
Christianity, but in the world. It was 
a glorious revival of religion, litera- 
ture, liberty, and all the best and 
dearest interests of man. It was a 
mighty revolution which changed the 
entire character of the reIigiou.s and 
political world. It overthrew princi- 
plea long revered to be divine. It in- 
troduced new modes of thought and 
action. It created an extraordinary 
excitement thruout the whole of 
Europe. It agitated the learned in 
the universities. It aroused the 
nobles in the castles. It stirred the 
monks In their cloisters, and it awoke 
the populace in their homes. 

Protestants maintained that Christ- 
ianity was restored to its primitive. 
Bcriptual simplicity and precepts and 
ordinances of God were cleansed of 
the excrescences that had been per- 
mitted to grow upon them by the Re- 
formation. The emancipation of the 
Church of God from the bondage of 
sin and Ignorance came with the 
gloriouB Reformation. 

The central figure in the Reforma- 
tion was Martin Luther. We have 
«een pictures of this man. We have 
asked, are they correct portrayals of 
the man? What did he look like? 
How did he appear? These questions 
are answered for us by Loescbci;. The 
description of Luther by Loescher is 
as follows: "This distinguished man 
had naturally a sound constitution, 
which was not easily affected even by 
bis Indefatigable industry, and almost 
OTcrwhelming. He was of moderate 
height, full face and fresh complexion 
Much labor and abstinence from gross 
food sicmed to suit him best: thei 
least indulgence s^oon made ^im sick. 
He was of lively temperament, was ex- 
ceedingly fond of music, in which he 
produced many excellent compositions, 
and played skillfully on the flute. 
Ilia voice was penetrating and clear, 
which rendered him a good alto sing 
er in his earlier years. He had an 
underlying love for the truth, an ex- 
traordinary power in discovering and 
defeuding it. There was an uncom- 
mon transparency in his ideas and a 
lingular felicity in expressing them, 
BO that he threw the clearest light on 
the darkest subjects, and removed the 
thorns of subtlety as well as the 
clouds and mist of confusion from all 
matters which he undertook to illus- 
trate. He had a rare faculty of rep- 
resenting truth In the vigorous style, 



most palpable manner: a remarkable 
penetration into the ways of God and 
the internal connection of things: A 
heroic resolution to do and suffer 
everything for the divine truth: a 
cheerfulness to promote everything 
useful and necessary and a wonderful 
fortitude in resisting everything 
which could lead him either to the 
right hand or to the left." As Pro- 
fessor Smith, formerly of Pennsyl- 
vania College, puts it: 
"His eye is mild, yet by its vivid 

fire 
The inward spirit's burning zeal 

betrays: 
A mind to think and do, and holy 

Iro 
At falsehood's reign, his lofty brow 

displays. 
When to a gentle smile his lips 

unfold, -^ 

There's sweetness, kindness In his 

radiant fane: 
But when compressed, decision 

prompt and bold, 
And firmness naught can shake 

assume their place. 
But, hark! what voices ring around 

him there? 
Here praise, there execration rends 
the air." 




THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF A 

COLLEGE EDUCATION 

(Continued from I'irst Page) 
words he has attained prominence in 
the reel of thought, having a mind 
able to appreciate in a classical and 
scientifc sense ideas and, jrenerally 
s{)eaking, life. Again a mind so train- 
ed has superior powers of analysis: 
and can enable the possessor to ac- 
complish that which would otherwise 
be impossible. That is also a result 
of the comprehensive Vay in which all 
subjects are taught. 

We, as those favored to obtain tlic 
golden fruit of a college education, 
need not meet certain necessary re- 
quirements. As requisites are neces- 
sary for the pursuance of certain 
courses of study in the curriculum, so 
it i^ also. necessary in order to attain 
the laurels of a college education. 
Tliere are two fundamental requisites 
which are considered very essential. 
The> are keeping a v.ell balanced in- 
terest in college activities, and a dili- 
gent, studious application to one's 
studies. An earnest endeavor to meet 
both these requirements will make the 
road to the tree upon which hanss 
the golden fruits of college attain- 
ments one of profitableness and pleas- 
antness. 

Tlure is another condition which 
niu.st be mentioned, and by many is 
considered the best achievenient. The 
superlative attainment atler such n 
( o\irse as has been suggested, is a 

II tt with character. Now a beautiful 
character, one that is goini? to he 
ri;;hily serviceable to oneself and ones 

III ii!il)or, must have more than a na- 
tural, physical, or intellectual undcr- 
slandina:. The highest wisdom comes 

'tium the God whom we worship in 
.Fesus Christ; therefore, along with all 
the achievements, the best is that one. 
And towards this all others sliouUl be 
diverted. So that in tiuth we may use 
ihe iieliifvenients of a college educa- 
tion to the glory of God: and for the 
benefit of our fellowmen.

"Tom Sawyer" 

Mark Twain's great boy character will be played by JACK PICKFORD. 
It is a well-R'nown fact that Mark Twain would never allow his famous 
book, "TOM SAWYER," to be dramatized, for the reason that he 
thought it an impossibility to show the white town of Hannibal, Mo., 
drowsing in the sunshine by the sleepy Mississippi, and the thousand 
and one details that make his picture so vivid. And indeed he was 

right it was impossible to place all that on the narrow confines of any 

stage, but many marvels have been accomplished through the medium 
of the screen and the ail-seeing eye of te camera.

Wallace Reid

It's kind of a timely question right now to ask how you would like to

That's the way that Wallace Reid thinks in this gr?at picture of 
mountain feuds and dazzling love. "Duke" Morgan did it. When de 
Spain (Wallace Reid) finds out that his sweetheart's father was impli- 
cated In the death of his own father and mother he is torn between 
love and revenge — and you get one of the most dramatic scenes ever 
recorded by the camera. Don't miss it!

Y. M. C. A. NOTES 

The weekly meeting of the Y. M. C. 
A. was led by Gortner. After singing 
a number of inspirational songs, the 
leader read from the first chapter of 
the book of Daniel and Crossland led 
'in prayer. Dr. Floyd spoke, using the 
Scripture lesson as the basis of Jtis 
talk, which in substance was as fol- 
lows: Daniel, a captive in Babylon, 
was chosen by the king to be prepared 
for public life. He was trained in the 
king's court and was fed with the 
king's meat. But he and his compan- 
ions wisely refused this food for a 
more simple diet and at the expiration 
of their training were found to be far 
superior to the other youths taking a 
similar training, Thi.s was their col- 
ledge course. They were bright and the 
best in the kingdom and were secur- 
ing the best training for their future 
public life. After graduation they 
were appointed satraps over the pro- 
vinces of the kingdom and over these 
hundred-twenty-seven satraps were ap- 
pointed three whom we may call com- 
missioners. At the head of this trium- 
virate was placed Daniel. He was the 
most important commissioner of the 
empire just as Joseph was the chief 
food commissioner in the land of 
J'nypt- Joseph originated the wheat- 
less day way back in early historic 
times. Both he and Daniel were train- 
ed for their hiKh offices in the king's 
court. After graduation all students 
seek some station in life and in order 
to be ready for it and be able to fill it 
successfully he must be educated for 
it. Moses, leader of his people, had 
the best training tij^e land of Egypt 
oould afford. Bes^^lps training a man 
must have character. Daniel had 
character. In spite of ^he den of lions 
Daniel opened his window to^^ard 
Jerusalem and prayed to the only true 
God. The world is looking for charac- 
ter. So let every man thoroughly 
prepare himself and at the same time 
develop and keep a clean, strong 
character for in this manner only can 
he succeed. The president announced 
that there would be no meeting on the 
next Tuesday evening but instead the 
Y. M. C. A, would enjoy the first of 
the lecture course in Seibert Hall. 



PHILO 

Philo met in postponed session |ast 
Friday niglit. Because of a small 
crowd and a much depleted program 
Clio was adjourned to meet with 
Philo and enjoy her program so that 
Philo hall was well filled as was also 
the program. Mr. Fisher read a 
thoughtful and interesting essay. In 
the declamation class Miss Jane Bots- 
ford read a delightful little poem. 
Miss Lulu Fetterolf substituted a 
thesis for an original oration in this 
class and received marked attention 
for her brilliant production. Miss 
Reinhold sang beautifully and was en- 
cored. Mr. Wm. Docker presented the 
current news in an original and spicy 
manner and won much approbation 
for his interesting delivery. In the' 
select reading class Miss McCool won 
fresh laurels for herself with her 
usual entertaining reading. The Philo 
was read by assistant editor. Miss 
Salem. This number was marked by 
its prevailent originality and timely, 
witty jokes. The editorial was also 
praiseworthy. For extempore speech- 
es the president called upon Misses 
McCool and Susan Rearick, whom she 
introduced as embryo poets and whose 
poem in a previous issue of The Sus- 
quehanna sprang at once into popu- 
larity. They each recited a short 
poejn original with themselves for 
which they received voluminous ap- 
plause. The president then called on 
Mr. Auman to sing the selection 
which he had prepared for Clio's pro- 
gram which he did quite beautifully. 
Another performer on Clto's program, 
Mr. Papenfus, was called upon to de- 
liver his famous lecture on temper- 
ance. His delivery was forceful and 
dramatic and the audi^ce was greatly 
moved by his eloquent logic and emo- 
tional presentation but unfortunately 
his voice failed him before he had 
spoken a halt hour due to the great 
srtain to which he has held his voice 
night after night in his anti-booze lec- 
tures. The meeting as a whole was a 
huge success and every member of the 
audience felt highly repaid for his 
presence. The next meeting will be 
the regular time for election and it is 
desired that all loyal Philo members 
be present to elect their favorite can- 
didates to their respective ofllces. 



THE WAR ROSARY 
I knit, I knit, 
I pray, I pray; 

My knitting is my rosary. 
And as I weave the stitches gray 

I murmur prayers continually. 

Gray loup — a sigh 
Gray knot— a wish. 

Gray row, a chain of wistful prayer 
For thus to sit and knit and pray— 

This is of war the woman's share. 

And so I knit, 
And thus I pray, 

And keep repeating night and day. 
May God lead safely those dear feet 

That soon shall wear the web of 
gray. 

Now and again 
A selfish strain? 

But surely woman heart must yearn 
And pray sometimes that she may 
hear 

The sound of footsteps that return. 

But If— God, 
Not that. But if 

It must be sacrifice complete, 
Then I will trust that afterwards 

Thou wilt guide Home those prec- 
ious feet.

Those who v.cre in attendance at 
the Y. M. C. A. lecture held In Seihert 
Hall last TucHclay evcnhig heard one 
of the most wonderful war lectiues 
ever given. Dr. Blaisdell, of the Col-

subject of "Today's ratriolism," or 
Culture and Kultur. 

From positive fact and well corro- 
boratated evidence he convicted Ger- 
many of the most atrocious deeds. 
From his son who was in that country 
for several years previous to the war 
and only left after the war began he 
was able to learn many things which 
could not be learned elsewhere. Dr. 
Blaisdell is a v;ouderful speaker and

Next Friday every litudent will have 
Ihe privilege of srhscrihing for a 1919

lege annual putjlia irfl i ach year by the 
Junior class. The.3e hool\s are always 



laroi. iho Culture of America with the ! read with interesi and form an im- 



Kultur of ttie- Kaiser and the difference 
was shocking. In comparing the mod- 
ern Germans with the ancienl Huns 
who overthrew Rome the ancient Ilun 
was merciful, yet the whole world 
knows of th.e ravages of Attila. Never 
in the history of the world, even a- 
among the savage races, has there 
been a race cainparable with the mod- 
ern Teuton in savagery. 

This was the. first of the three lec-

earnestness that he was able to carry 
the minds of all with him. After he

portant part of the library of every 
alumnus. In aftei- years these books 
are a source of nru.h uiformallon and 
delight to the fon.ier student. 

The book this :'ear is far superior 
to those of former years. Tli(> staff 
has profited by the experience of the 
former staffs so that they arc better 
able to put out a book. By combining 
the best features of their books^they 
have been able to publish a wonder- 
ful book. 

Among the many interesting things 
in this years book is found an excel- 
lent victurt of L"ra^ oii.squ.hani.a Unit 
in which we as students are so vitally 
interested. There are excellent pic- 
tures of the college buildings and 
views on the college campus besides 
a great number of snapshots showing 
the student life. All the classes of the 
college are shown. Instead of the us- 
ual method of single panels or groups 
the pictures this year are mounted on 
panels with two panels to a poee. 
This adds a great improvement to the 
appearance of the page. The calendar 
is spicy and full of information and 
will be a source of amusement for a 
lifetime. All the writeups are excep- 
tionally good and the book as a whole 
is a masterpiece. 

The book is bound in brown Luxo- 
leather with the title stamped in gold. 
j The paper is of a .special college 
I enamel stock printed of special half- 
; tone ink. Around each page is a gold 
I liorder which adds to the attraciive- 
ness ot the book. 

: .\s the college year is closing so 
I much before time this year it is neces- 
sary to order the books now so that 
j shipment can be made in good time. 
I All orders must lie in by February 
i l."j in order to insure you gi'tting a 
■copy. The books will be ready for dis- 
tribution about April 15th. 

The price of the books is three dol- 
lars of which one half is pa:^bl(> wlun 
the order is given and the r<'mainder 
when the book is delivered. Decide at 
once to order at least one of these 
books and be ready to subscribe ne\t 
Fiiday when you are interviewed.

COOKE-POTTER 

Miss Edith Davis Potter, daughter 
' of Mrs. Albert W. Potter, of Selins- 
I grove, was married at the home or 
her mother here Wrdni sday at 11 a. 
m., to Oakley Watts Cooke, of New- 
ark, N. J., the ceremony being per- 
formed by the Rev. Dr. John B. Focht, 
of Trinity Lutheran Church, Selins- 
grove. 

Tlie bride was given in marriage by 
her uncle. Miles I. Potter, of Middle- 
burg, and was attended by her sister. 
Miss Mary Marguerite Potter, as maid 
of honor. M. CasewoU Heine, of New 
York, was best man. :,:is«cs Elizabeth 
and Frances \Vagen.= e!!er, both of 
Selin.igrove, were ribbon beareis. 

The bride was costumed in bride's 
satin and chantilly lace, and carVied 
a shower bouquet of bride's roses and 
lillies of the valley. The maid of 
honor wore a gray crepe de chine. 

Mrs. Cooke was a graduate from 
Susquehanna University with the class 
of 1902, and continued her study of

girls played good ball they wer(> un- 
able to win. 

The game was fast from the very 
start and Susquehanna was the first 
to tally when Fetterolt made a won- 
derful shot. Williamsport replied to 
this with another after which both 
sides scored alternatively so that at 
the end of the half the score stood 
9-9. All thru the first half both sides 
giiarded closely so thai there was not 
much chance to shoot and very hard

THE YEAR BOOK 

This week the members of the 
"Lanthorn" staft will begin a big drive 
to obtain subscriptions for the 1919 
number. It is a big task which they 
face this year in attemuting to keep 
up the practice of former years and 
they are to he commended on this ac- 
tion. Prices have advanced consider- 
ably, and the cost of production will 
be greater in every way, l»ut tbiy are 
willing to shoulder the responsibility 
if you give them your support. 

The prici- of the hook this year will 
be only slightly higher than that of 
previous years and any one will admit 
that in ten years from now this book 
will be invaluable to the owner. You 
wouldn't sell yours for any money if 
vou could not seeuic another one. 



one of tln> most intciisling s-ls ol 
games excr held in this lounliy. Al- 
ready assurances ha\i' bei n iceiivr'! 
from Yale, Harvard, Tiiiiecton, Cor- 
nell, Chicago, and many other loHcges 
that they will be representml. The 
meeting will be especially interesting 
this year becaTise of (be fact that the 
coaches of the dilTcri'nt colleges find 
themselves stripped practically of all 
th(Mr star athletes. The general pub- 
lic will go to the games eager to see 
the scores of nmv stars that will shine 
for tht- lirst time on the various 
teams. Already we hear of new 
phenomenons that the coaches are un- 
earthing and as they will all work- 
especially hard, there is no doubt that 
the teams for the championship events 
will be nearly if not *iuite up to the 
standaid set in pre-War times. 

The games will be held on Friday 
and Saturday as usual. Last year, in 
spite of the fact that war had been 
di>clared only a short time previously, 
there were over 300 teams in attend- 
ance. At that time, many of the col- 
leges with a mistaken idea of the im- 
portance of college athletics in war 
times, gave up all their sports ab- 
ruptly but even with this handicap, 
there were close to one hundred col- 
lege teams at the Carnival. Since 
then, most of the colleges that gave up 
atheltics have resumed Intercollegiate 
sport. For this reason and because 
the coaches know that the athletes 
must have some special incentive this 
year, there shquld be an even larger 
number of colleges on hand. The 
Friday program will have as its special 
attractions, the sprint distance and dis- 
tance medley relays and the Penta- 
thlon of All arovmd college champion- 
ship. It is very probable that the 
medley relay championship will this 



It is tlie one record of your school | ^.^^.^j. j^^, ^.p,.^. popular. Enlstment has 

cut down the track squads greatly and 
though the colleges man find it diffi- 
cult to get out strong teams for the 
one, two or four mile relay cham- 
pion.ship, they will probably be able 
to get out medley teams as in these 
races, they can use their fastest men 
on the same team whether they be 
^printers or distance men. With 
Pennsylvania's famou.s all around ath- 
lete. Berry, out of tin way, there will 
no doubt be a host of candidates for 
Pentathlon honors. On Saturday, the 



life which will be precious to you as 
long as you live. The pictures of 
clubs, <lass< s, athletic teams, and col- 
lege groups are somctliing that can 
never be replaced in any other way, 
and i!-. "I.anthorn" preserves them 
for you as no other book can. 

The problem of publishing a success- 
ful year book cannot be understood 
by any one not connected Avlth the 
St a if, : c you have the easy part of it. 
The editor promises us that the book 
this year will bo entirely different 



from that of previous years, and that one, two and four mile college relay 

chamjiionships of America, the Fresh- 
man one mile relay championship, the 
high school and prepntatory school re- 
lay championship and the special ev- 
vn\n will be the main fralures. Penn- 
sylvana's management also plan to 
put on various Srrvice relays between

PHILO ♦ 

Philo met in an interesting session 
on Friday evening. The vice president 
called the meeting to order. Mr. M. 
A. Lecrone was initiated as an active 
member. The program was somewhat 
depleted but was rendered as follows: 
Miss Fisher read a carefully prepared 
essay. Miss Grossman dramatically 
delivered a declamation showing gen- 
uine presenting abilities. Miss Mow- 
ror declamed also. Mr. Ulrich sang 
beautifully and was encored. The cur- 
rent news was well presented by Mr. 
Kornman. Mr. Allbeck read "Philo." 
It was a booze edition and his arrange- 
ment of booze and liquor traffic and 
his jokes were forceful, spicy and 
timely. Mr. Faust and Mr. Kornman 
each spoke extemporaneously. The 
election resulted as follows: president, 
Mr. Faust; vice-president, Mr. All- 
beck; secretary. Miss McCool; editor. 
Miss Evelyn Allison; assistant editor, 
Mr. William Decker; critics. Miss 
Dorothy Rearick and Mr. Staib; pian- 
ist. Miss Reinhold; acceder, Mr. Baer; 
monitor, Mr. Swanger. We are sure 
these newly elected oiHcers will put 
some new "pep" into Philo and tha^ 
the meetings will be more interesting 
than they have been for some timj\

WHERE YOU'LL FIND 

THE STATESMEN 

You will find them playing checkers 
at Slvinner's country .store, where they 
munch at cheese and crackers while 
the wintry blasts do roar. But altho 
they chew tobacco and spit upon the 
floor, yet they save the state and na- 
tion at Skinner's country store. 

There they talk much on the tariff, 
on scandal.'; and on war. Oh, lord, but 
don't they know a lot at Skinner's 
country store? There's Squire Smith 
and Deacon Jones, Bill Brown and old 
Hank Young, who all declare in thun- 
der tones, "The Kaiser should be 
hung!" 

There they talk of soaring prices of 
bull beef and of pork, and talk some, 
too, about T. R. at Oyster Bay, New 
York. And they whittle with their 
barlows at Skinner's country store, 
where they carve the chair and nail 
kegs and other things aglore. 

But those wiseguys all are states- 
men, at Skinner's country store, and 
all the world they'll set aright before 
the winter's o'er. So let us all be 
thankful when peace doth follow war, 
that all of it was brought about at 
Skinner's Country Store. 

Moral: If you think all our great 
statesmen are the ones you read about 
in the newspapers, you can bo con- 
vinced of your error by calling at al- 
most any cross-roads store on almost 
any winter evening.

not here, but the fre.3hmen caps are. 
All we can say is better late Ihan 
never. 



Dr. Aikens spoke about the condi- 
tion of the remodeled dormitory, in 
chapel some time last week. We do 
have a very pretty dormitory, and 
every one of us should take pride in 
it. So let us do our very best, to keep 
the rooms and halls in good condition. 



If you notice Ihe fellows walking 
just a little straif^htcr, and the girls 
walking alouK a little more lively, just 
remember that we are now having 
military training at Susquehanna. The 
students all appieciate this, and are 
v(>ry glad that our institution is in this

We are truly liaving a real winter,

would gieatly diminish the number of

this iciness, and many a fellow really 
has to be a contortionist in order to 
maintain his equilibrium.

IT'S A GREAT LIFE 

IF YOU DON'T WEAKEN 

The student lives an awful life. 
His days are ever full of strife. 
Basketball and other things 
Put the time on lightening wings. 

If he stays in every night, 
Studies hard with all his might. 
He's a grind and soon he pays 
To S. O. S. or I. T. K's. 

If he is a jolly skate 
And quite often stays out late, 
TransportatiOTi must he seek 
Or he won't get out his Greek. 

Tho he's good at basketball, 
He may slip and slide and fall. 
If he's full of music sand, 
Blow his head off in the band.

REV. C. P. BASTIAN 

of interesting and important problems 
on the most important subject of the 
boy problem. Tlie boy problem is one 
of the most vital problems before th" 
minds of the people today and any in- 
formation that can be gotten concern- 
ing it should be grasped. Rev Bas- 
tian has made a study of this topic 
and is well fitted to expound it to the 
country. He is a lecturer of note and 



wherever he has gone he has met 
with great favor. Anyone wjio hears 
this lecture tonight will not be disap- 
pointed. It is possessed of much in- 
formation and considerable humor is 
inteimixed. The lecture will begin at 
8:15 and the admissjon will be 25 
cents. 

Next Monday, February 18, the last 
of the series will be held when Dr. 
Byron W. King, of Pittsburgh, will 
lecture on the subject "Pay Up or 
Quit." Dr. King is one of the foremost 
lecturers on the platform today and is 
known thruout the- continent. He is 
so widely knowii that we feel that it 
is not necessary to say anything con- 
cerning him. Everywliere he goes 
large audiences greet him and we feel 
eertain that the same thing will hap- 
pen here. To be on the safe side you 
should order your seats in advance. 
I The price of admission will be fifty 
cents. The sale of seats will begin 
Wednesday at twelve o'clock and the

the seats marked off. Those who have 
season tickets will go to this place

season ticket entitles you to a re- 
served seatr Unreserved seats will

have Y. M. C. A. membership tickets 
v.ill be admitted to the lecture but if 
they wish to have reserved seats they 
can secure same by payment of fifteen 
cents. 



LOCAL MINISTER GIVES HELPFUL 
TALK BEFORE WEEKLY Y. M. C. 
A. MEETING 



"To waste is nothing short of crim- 
inal."— Secretary of the Treasuiy Mc 
Adoo. 

The duty of tlie American people 
to economize in consumption of food 
and all other materials as well as 
save money, can not bee too often or 
too strongly urged upon them. The 
duty is so imperative, its observance 
.so viial to our country's success, that 
it should be kept constantly befor" 
them. 

The proposition is plain and under- 
standable. We have lessened the 
productive powers of the country by 
taking 2,000,000 men away from the 
productive forces of the country; in 
stead of producers! of one kind or an- 
other the soldiers are consumers of 
the products of our farms, factories, 
and mines, and when the munitions 
they expend and will expend against 
the enemy is considered they are tre- 
mendous consumers of the manufac- 
tured products of the country. 

A tremendous amount of the manu- 
tacturing energy of the country has 
been withdrawn from manufacturing 
the things we use In peace and put 
to manufacturing the things we use 
in war. The total loss to the country 
of the productive energy of our sol- 
fliers and sailors and the diversion of 
a great portion of the other produc- 
tive energy of the country to war pur- 
poses lessen to a great extent the 



amount of material and supplies pro- 
duced by the country. 

To this condition of lessened pro- 
duction and increased consumption of 
and by our own men must be added 
the extraordinary demand made upon 
this countjy to supply the armies of 
our allies and to a great extent their 
population with food and other ma- 
terial 

We must meet the condition that 
confronts us in two ways -by the 
strictest economy in con.sumption for 
every pound we refrain from using 
adds a pound to be devoted to the uses 
of our army and navy and the military 
forces of our allies; and by speeding 
up our production to the limit. The 
American people are going to do all 
that they know to be neces.Kaiy to win 
this war— to shorten this war. They 
have only to realize the imperative 
duty of economy in saving and they 
will economize and .save. 

Tell me not in mournful numbei.s, 

Of the grades in that last te.st 
For my brain is dead and slumbers 

And 1 was not at my best. 
School is real, yes I'm in earnest, 

Rut the grades' are not our goal 
Rut they come in nil.e;hty handy, 

Wlien you answer to ihr roll. 
Let us then be up and dusting 

With a candle sit im into 
I Still be cramming still be ramming, 
! Or a "flunk" will b. our fate. 



The Y. M. C. A. lur.ting last Tues- 
day evening wa^ in i.y Auman who 
conducted the devotional exercises 
[and introduced Rev. f'feif.r, the speak- 
er of the evening. Tiu t,.,ik was very 
helpful and inspirin-' lo all. The 
speaker addressed r>in>t of his re- 
marks to the pnmi.ii.ic.ial students. 
After expressing hi;:, apjinriation of 
the opportunity given hlni to again 
meet with the .studeus h, .muted that 
the fellows wiio got :iiio i!i.' active 
ministry would find iiHmy kinds of 
congregations but tb.ii ijiry should al- 
ways remembei' ilmi a congvegntion 
should be a force a; a not a field. It 
is a force that he mr :! divd to make 
the community a fii ;i i, u, Hvp and 
to lead those who i\-^ nur t ini.siians 
to the saving knov . i'lo of Jesus 
Christ- as Savior of iiun. But they 
will find that many i> ojdt' are only 
nominal Christians. ;'r. .lohn on his 
missionary journed i ct n man isiimed 
Diotrephes, "who lo- ■ Mi lo havr the 
preeminence among tiiciu." .Many i.eo- 
ple seek preeminenc •. jhiI that they 
miglit better serve 'li. jr fi'llowmen, 
but for preeniineni\ ' .i • and like 
Diotrephes might t ive said. "It i." 
right for me to seek preeminence," 
Judas had his heart set on money. 
He might have said "It is right for 
me to seek money," The following 
story was used to illustrate. All was 
quiet on the money rack when the 
dollar lifted up il.s head and said, 
("Behold? I am the alniishty dollar. All 
you other coins are of no account." 
There was silence again for a few 
minutes. Then the penny down in one 
corner spoke up. "You may l)e big 
but you are not good for I go to 
church more than you do." Money is 
the prime object of many people's 
lives, and they can see nothing but 
this world. Like Denias they might 
say, "It is good for me to love this 
present world." But David the good 
king might easily be made say. "It is 
good for me to be near to God." That 
was his desire and should be the de- 
sire of all men, Wf should get near- 
er to God with our liearls and our 
hands. We may get closer by reading 
and meditating on the Scriptures. 
The nation called to war and millions 
answered at once. But the churchi is 
ever calling to a grander, nobler work 
and a few faithful souls re,>^pond. Let 
many answer the great call of the 
church and fight under the banner of 
the cross as now many are serving 
under the glorious stars and stripes. 
The president announced the lec- 
ture for next Tuesday evening thai 
will take place of the regular Y. M. C. 
A. meeting. Rev. C. P, Bastian, of 
Charleroi, Pa., will lecture on the sub- 
ject, "My Boy and 1." 



COEDS DEFEAT LEWISBURG BY 
LARGE SCORE ON FOREIGN FLOOR 

Girls Again Mete Out Defeat to Fast Team 
From Lewisburg. Score 25-9. Great 
Game. Lock Haven Next 



The statesmen of the world must 
plan for peace and nations must adjust 
and accomodate their policy to it as 
they have planned for war and made 
ready for pltiles.s ((ai'iHt and rivalry. 
\^'odorow Wilson. 



"Were ihey able to repeal? Tliey 
most certainly were. Not only repeat 
but a double r( sieai." 

Our co-eds, ji\ a stii-ring ,t;ame at 
Lewisburg .-'aiiiKiay night defeated 
the team from tlial place- by the de- 
cisive score of 2," 9. Two weeks ago 
in Alumni gyinnasiuni 'his same team 
was beaten 1:1 G and ii v a.-^ the great 
hope of all tlinf tlie nick might be re- 
peated. Tho everyone v,as earnestly 
hoping thai v, e wouii] v, .n >et it came 
as a great tlio very agreeable sur- 
prise when we lie.'iid tliai our girls 
had won. E.\ciienieiu luis been run- 
ning high ever since th(> other game 
and the imeresi .•--hown by the stu- 
dents no doulit was (juiie a help to 
the players. A nuie.ber of studi-nts 
accompanied Mie team to Lewisburg 
and assisted them by (hecrin.g. 

The gami> was fast from the start 
tho it was noi lon.g in uou1)t who would 
be the victors. Soon afier the game 
started Fetterolf scored a coal wliicli 
was followed in .-lort cder by a foul 
and a goal 1. . ' ir.;,. Another '/-'.:! 
was secui-ed which made liie score G 
lietore Lewisburg .-^et ured a point. 
Then on fouls they secured three 
points whil(> our lar-sies were adding 
one more goal. Oiuing th(> remainder 
of the half Lewiolnirg was able to se- 
cure a goal and Susquehanna three 
fouls, making the score at the end oi 
the half ll-.'j. 

Second half opened v. iih several 
ncw^ faces in the LewisburR line-up 
and these strengthened the team con- 
siderably. But the fact that they 
were behind weakened the morale of 
the team while our team were helped 
by the same fact. 

Fetterolf .soon seemed two more 
goals and Woodruff shot two fouls 
and in the same time the opponents 
secured four points. Then substitu- 
tions were made in our line-up and 
the game started up again taster than 
ever. In close su((e.«sion Fetterolf 
ba,gged two more Loals. Woodruff on" 
,1,'oal and two fouls. This brought the 
same to an end with the score 2.'')-9 
and our lassies on ilu- long end, 

Never before have our sirls showed 
such remarkebb' jiiaying as they did 
Saturday night. A;;aiiist such wonder- 
ful team work and excellent .shooting 
no team could long stand. They 
were invincible. 

The treatment accorded the team by 
the Lewisburi^ oltieial. was very good 
and everyone was f;tiislied. The stu- 
dent body can well be jiroud of this 
wonderful team which is representing 
Ihein on the floor this .\ear and all 
should turn out to ;;11 games and 
show their ai)preciatlon of their ef 
forts. 

During the k niaiiuii ,■ el the season 
we have foui' ganie^-- at home. Next 
Saturday we play Lock Haven and we 
are going to win that game. The fol 
lowing Friday Williainsiiort, the only 



team that lias ueieated us ihi;, year, 
will i)lay la Aliirnni Cyin and the 
game will be an important one. We

WASTED TIME 
A great deal of time is wasted by 
the average college student. It will 
not be expected that the young poi- 
son at school will waste no time, for 
if there is ever a time of little luxu- 
ries, it is while at college. With train- 
ing, there is as a part of college life, 
a joyous, carefree attitude that is 
hound to express itself, and most often 
this expression will come as time 
fooled away. But the average .stii 
dent wastes entirely too much time. 
It is not' a matter of a relaxation 
from study, but the ub.solute loos of 
several hours each day. There is 
practically no one who does not rea- 
lize this, hut very few students are 
making an effort to do something bet- 
ter with this time. 



youisi-if very advquately upon a lojiic 
in the time you waste in a semester. 
To several, school work is not parlieu 
iaily !iii)(l, and these can c;!^ !l.\ do

CLIO 

The Clionian Literary Society met 
in regular se.ssion last Friday even- 
ing. It was well attended. A girl's 
program was rendered, which delight- 
ed all present. The program thruout 
was a splendid demor.stration ot the 
talent ot the female members of Clio, 
it being instructive as well as enter- 
taining. 

Miss Sigworth read an essay on 
"Food Control," in which she proved 
herself an ardent advocate and sup- 
porter ot the theories of Mr. Hoover. 
Mr. Rine acting as substitute made a 
great hit with the audience by the 
reading of two poems "The Fool" and 
"He Sleeps In the Valley Tonight." 
Miss Steffen proved her ability as a 
performer and showed her excellent 
judgment by a very select reading. 
Miss Adams rendered several selec- 
tions on the piano quite beautifully 
for which she received a hearty en- 
core. A very timely and Instructive 
essay on Science and Modern Warfare 
was read by Miss Hoffer. 

The president called upon Mr. Au- 
man, as extempore to speak upon S 



In such a time of conservation as | 
this, time that is oidinarily wa.sted ' 
should be saved. While saving our 
coal, and decreasing the power used 
by street cars, and using less sugar, 
and numerous other little requests of 
our government, why not put our was- 
ted time to a better use? As college 
students we have been asked to .sacri- 
fice a little, and we have responded 
quite freely, but is it not possible to 
economize on the hours of the day? 
This would not be merely a measure 
for the government in this period of 
war, but would be a distinct advantag'^ 
to us as individuals. 

There are a great many things that 
we might do, which would he of direct 
benefit to us, whether we later find 
ourselves in tlie army or not. If a 
man knows that in a year or pcrhap.^ 
In two years he will be in tlu' army, 
he can do both himself and liis gov 
ernmcnt a favor by getting ready. Ho 
may be able to learn to use the (di- 
graph key. lie may be able to spend 
more time in the laboratory. ir«' may 
Improve his French or take iidvuiice 
work in mathematics. It will not mean 
tarrying extra hours, but devoting a 
few hours to this new hobby. If, be- 
cause of disability, there is linb- 
chance of entering the army, a per- 
son can prepare for greater useful- 
ness In some business line. To a gieat 
many, knowledge of typewriting and 
shorthand would be an assrt. Ttr- 
haps some could profit with a business 
course. Or the intensive study of a 
certain machine or proccs.s would bo 
a great vr.lue to one planning to en- 
ter a manufacturing circle. And to 
another large class, those preparing 
to teach, there comes a similar call. 
Why not further prepare yourself by 
a little added work outside of your 
regular elassi"-'' You might Inform 



U's. response to the coimtry's call, 
which he did very ably and effectively. 
The Clio Herald was read by assist- 
ant editor Cole and was much appre- 
ciated for its richness of thought, 
originality and spicy jokes. 

The program for next Friday even- 
ing will be rendered by the Theo- 
logucs. It is of an exceptional char- 
acter and promises a great literary 
treat. Clio Hall should be filled to 
its extremity.

A number of students, mostly ol 
the Amason sex, accompanied the 
team to Lewisburg Saturday night. A 
IVw males fussers were along, also. 
The trip was greatly enjoyed by all 
of the aforementioned persons. They 
left Selinsgrove at 4:30 p.m., got a 
sandwich apiece in Sunbury and then 
hin-riedly left for Lowishurg. About 
five of the crowd tried their best to 
get lost there and one girl even ac- 
costed a man and inquired where he 
got bis carpc-t bag. ' Coach thought 
the girls were dressing for a party 
from the time it took them but finally 
they were ready and went to the 
Bueknc^ll gym where they cleaned up 
Iheir opponents. The rooters rooted, 
too. altho some preferred to lliil. 
A1'l<r the game the gang went to Mil- 
Kiu to eaich the flier and during the 
two liotus wait there amused them- 
sc^lves falling around on the pave- 
ments and getting some real eats and 
then giving some yells and songs for 
tilt' public's benefit at the station. 
fUit the train came and hauled the 
bunch, even lonely Pompier, to Sun- 
bury and a special car met them there. 
Jess almost lost her purse. Pompier 
lost his girl and Coach came oft with a

cellent, full program was rendered. 
The debate class which has for some

JOIS AND BLOTS FROM 
THE COLLEGt CiPOS 

Dr. F. P. Manhart, Dean of S. U's. 
Srhool of Theolosy, and secietary of 
the Lutheran General Synod, attend- 
ed the meeting in Baltimore laBt 
week, of the Ways and Means eom- 
niittee of the three large Lutheran 
bodies that will merge next November. 

This commit tie is cliarged with ar- 
ranging all the necessary meetings 
and actions whereby the General 
Snyod, the General Council, and the 
United Snyod in tlie South, can 
finish all their work iuid then di.s- 
i^olve and join in forming The United 
1 Lutheran Cliurch in America. 

A.s this will mean the merging of 
variou.s hoards with large and varied 
interests, and the uniting of forty- 
seven synods into one body of nation- 
al and even world-wide scope, the 
problems the committee has to solve 
are quite intricate. .There are eight 
men from the General Synod, eight 
from the General Council, and five 
from tl-.e Unit(>d Synod on this coin- 
:nlttt>e. 

Tlie merger will not affect the ex- 
isinnce of any (>stahlis;hecl scliool, l)ut 
will give all Ltiilicran interesl.s a wid- 
er scope and a far mor(! prominent, 
position in oui'country and in the 
world. 

it is a matter of satisfaction to 
•Susquehanna that one of her teaching 
staff is a part of this very important 
cummiltee. 

Quite often we see notices on the 
hiillrtin hoard of articles lest by the 
dilTi rent students. I'^ountain pens, 
key.s, sweaters, and lately a .gold 
watcli liave been some of the articles 
nunlioned. Surely the person or per- 
sons finding such articles know tliat 
they slionld be retni'ned. Are the find- 
ers ignorant of tire riglitful owners of 
the articles lost, or is it plain theft? 

We have military training at Sus- 
quehanna for the fellows, every Wed- 
n.;(!ay at 4 p.m. It i.s a good ihing. 
hut one of the rcQuircmcntK of ruLli- 
tary discipline is punctuality. Yet 
every Wednesday there are some whfi 
come in as much as twenty minute? 
late. This is not entiiely tliejr fault, 
as often jirofessors having three 
o'clock classes, keep the students in 
overtime. Why not make it a point to 
dismiss classes at 4 p.m. prompt, at 
least every Wednesday?

I We are sincerely hoping for more of

too, for then we feel iissiired that icy 
entrances and unshovded walks will 
not be able to withstand the strain, 
and students can then walk around 
school ie'eling more secure from tuni-

Last Thursday mornnig some of oui 
fair co-eds created quite a sensation in 
chapel, by introducing a new Parisian 
style in coiffeur. Many jealous glances 
were cast heir way. But this was all 
eliminated at dinner time, when it 
was quite noticeable that one of the 
ladies with the new style, quite for- 
got hei- niani\ers, and ate potpie and 
heets Willi her knife. This is quite a 
dangerous performance, and we would 
suggest the using of the fork.

INTERESTING SKETCH OF JOUR- 
NEY OF OUR BOYS TO THE 
LAND "OVER THERE" 



f 1, 



I'a., wliere he is doing very successful 
work for his Master. 

His lecture was strikingly practical 
in form and material, and showed 
careful and hitensive sludy of his sub- 
ject. His presentation of the boy prob- 
lem as related to the present crisis of 
our nation was unique and tinifiy. A 
pleasant^ minisierial stylo character- 
ized his lecture, mixGd here and there 
with bits of real, lively humor that 
conipletely captivated his audience. 
Sympathy for the boy with a bad 
father, indignat;ou at the common in- 
justice committed agamst the youth, 
approval for the proper treatment of 
boys and mirth at the humorous tricks 
and p_]-anks of all f)oys. all those feel- 
ings he aroused and swayed intermit- 
tently by his eloquent, practical and 
witty presentation of the life of a boy. 
His illustrations, so clearly portrayed 
and often so humorously, were inci- 
dents in his own boyhood or that of 
his boy and were not peculiar to them 
but to all real, live, active boys. 
Anecdotes and reminiscences of his 
boyhood and college life he vividly 
narrated greatly to the delight and 
mirth of the audience. Even if judged 
from the aspect of entertainment this 
lecture deserves unlimited commenda- 
tion and praise and furnished much 
pleasant and helpful diversion. But 
this was only the minor side of it. 

For parents and students of eugen- 
ics and even all students who wili 
some time in their lives be responsi- 
ble for the lives of some young per- 
son, cither their own child of a 
charge, this lecture wi.s an invaluable 
help. It aroused thought and present 
ed many of the practical and everyday 
principles for the treatment and prop- 
<'r discipline, of the boy. The lecture 
laid down some fundamental princi- 
ples incident to the life of every boy. 
He laid the responsibility upon the 
fathers to be a companion and teacher 
for his boy and placed the blame for 
many ruined lives on the unrighteous- 
ness of the fathers. He stated that as 
long as the father smokes he has no 
moral right to forbid the son to smoke 
and can by no means of logic expect 
him not to follow his father's steps. Hp 
protested against the policy of some 
families to forbid parts of the house 
to the children and of not giving them 
rooms of their own and making it at- 
tractive to them so that the children 
did not want to stay at home but pre- 
fered to roam the streets or spend 



lime and will give his services to look 
after the religious side of a soldic r', 
life. 

D^. Leonard gave a very interesting 
talk which was heard wijh interest ly 
all present. It is a grief to have Dr. 
Leonard depart from us but sinr(> 1, 
is going in this noble work we all wi;;li 
him God-speed and trust that we may 
be able to welcome him back after the 
war, with all its terrors, is over.

Rev. David A. Day, D.D., was one of 
the best known of the many useful 
and widely known men who studied 
in Missionary Institute, since 1894 
Susquehanna University. 

He had charge of the Muhlenberg 
Mission in Liberia, Africa, for twenty 
three yeara. His body, with that of 
his equally devoted and heroic wife, 
lies in thf beautiful God's acre above 
the University. 

He was born February 17, 18.51. His 
Bible, which he used for many years, 
was recently sent from Muhlenberg 
Mission to be deposited among tiie 
treasures of Susquehanna. It is a 
very interesting book.

On a pile of suphur kegs; 
His head was bowed upon his breast. 

His tail between bis legs. 

A look of shame upon his face, 
The sparks dripped from his eyes. 

He had sent his resignation 
To the trpne up in the skies.

He said it with a sob; 
"There are others that outclass me.

"Tried by fire," the crucible of the 
Metallurgist yields the precious metal. 
The Intense heat of the furnace drives 
off the dross and the impurities. 
With each repeated heating the metal 
become.s purer until at la.st the ingot 
of gleaming gold rewards the pains- 
taking effort. 

"Tried by fire," the fire of war, the 
crucible of democracy is yielding forth 
a better, truer Americani.=!m. All na- 
tions and races are in the flux, the 
untrue, the false, the disloyal must all 
pass away— driven off by the heat of 
aroused patriotism. America is pass- 
ing thru the testing and the result 
will be, we believe, a homogeneous, 
better people. Truly an ingot to 
please the Master Metallurgist. 

"Tried by fire," the American Col- 
leges are in the testing. Each col- 
lege and university man must bring 
his talent of gold to the great "melting 
pot of the nations." There in the 
great crucible its wonh will be prov- 
en. It your talent going to stand the 
test of life? Has the laboratory of 
college purified and increased those 
natural talents nature granted you? 
Can your talents stand even the fire 
of college life? 

"Tried by fire," the Susquehanna 
student is being tested. Each brought 
to college the persoanl crucible filled 
with nature's gift. The fire of col- 
lege life, the testing of friendships, 
the power of opportunitie.'^ won or neg- 
lected, the searching heat of examina- 
tions have melted, fu.^ed the mass. 
The weak, the inefllcient portion.^ 
have sublimed into the vapidness 
from which they toolr form. What 
remains should bear the test of time 
and the world. But how much re- 
mains for you? What have j-ou put 
into the crucible of your life? Tjnless 
the metallurgist put gold bearing 
earth or ore there will be no residue, 
no ini;ot, no gleaming gold to reward 
him. Too many college men and wom- 
en today are spending their time 
searching for the beauMful pebbles on 
the "sands of time." Too many have 
made collections of pretty shells, 
whose iridescent tintj will fade with 
the first blast of heat. Too many 
have sought and found the "fool's 
gold" that yields but the fumes of 
sulphur. Too many have filled their 
lives with the gossamer, spider web of 
dreams gleaming with the dewdrops 
of Imagination — th« first rays of the 
light of reality will destroy all that. 
Many tho hHv<» added greatly to their 
life's cni< ibl<', Much of this may be 
worthless, li HJncere effort has been 
there the "yellow gleam" will come. 
All hav>' add' d to tlie talent given 



them and as each passes from class 
10 class the amount grows steadily. 
i*'inally, the senior brings his talent to 
receive the stamp of the school, th^' 
mark of his quality. 

"Tried l)y fire," Dk fire of lite. 
There comes the teat. Will his little 
l)ar of gold bear up in the great fur- 
nace of life? Will it be true to its 
stamp of quality? Will the "acid test" 
of time merely increase its brightness? 
If Susquehanna stands for anything it 
should. If the students today are real 
men and women their talents will not 
only stand the test but they will be 
able to add to them all their lives and 
thus increase the total of gold in the 
great crucible for the Master Metal- 
lurgist. 



CHARACTER 

There is a structure which every 
person is building, young and old, 
each one for himself. It is called 
character, and every act of life is .\ 
stone which aids in the building of 
this structure, but as one leak will 
sink a ship, so one mean dishonorable 
act or word will forever leave its im- 
press and work its influence on our 
characters. 

Our minds are given us, but we 
make our characters; our mental pow- 
ers must be cultivated. Plant a hand 
full of seeds and tend them well and 
they will make an orchard; cultivate 
the powers and harmonize them well, 
and they will make a noble character 
A good character is a precious thing, 
above rubies, gold crown, or king- 
doms, and the work of making it is 
the noblest labor on earth. 

Every man is bound to aim at the 
possession of a good character, as one 
of the highest objects of his life. The 
very effort to secure it by worthy 
means will furnish him with a motive 
for exertion, and his Idea of manhood. 
in proportion as it is elevated, will 
steady and animate his motive. 

The value of character is the stand- 
ard of human progress. The individ- 
ual, the community, the nation, tells 
its standing by Us estmiation of chai- 
acter. That man or nation, who or 
which lightly esteems character is 
low, groveling, and barbarous. Just as 
a man prizes his character, so is he. 
This is the true standard of a man. 

Sum it up, then, as we will, char- 
acter is the great desideratum of hu- 
man life. This truth is the highest 
lesson of religion, the first that youth 
should learn, the last that age should 
forget.— The Augustaan. 



WE WILL SEE THIS THRU 
Wc are in the war to win, and 
thereby to put an end, we hope for all 
time, to the horrible threat levelled 
against modern civi'ization by the 
German Government. We must win; 
we must have no other thought. De- 
feat would mean the destruction of 
everything enlightened statesmen 
philanthropists, churchmen and pat- 
liots, including our own beloved fore- 
fathers have struggled for down thru 
the ages. Victory in this var will 
establish liberty and peace on a sure 
foundation for our descendants. They 
will not have to suffer as we suffered. 
But to win requires something more 
than mere declarations It requires 
longsustalned cooperative, concen- 
trated effort on the part of all of us. 
It requires great sacriflcea, not re- 
luctantly and grudgingly, but cheerful- 
ly and willingly. It lequlres loyalty 
in thought, In word and in deed. Let 
us send our young men to the battle- 
field with the firm assurance that be- 
hind them is a great nation united in 
their support. Such an assurance will 
sustain and Inspire them and make

The Alumni editor would appreciate 
it if the Alumni would send items to

keep in touch with all the alumni and 
it they would send in news it would 
help him considerably and improve 
the paper. Thank you.

j which (onsJHlrd of Drumm, Rine, 
Brown, Weaver, Ard, Harkins, Brown, 
Shannon and Middlesworth, with 
Keamerer as their able leader and 
director. This selection was entitled 
"Where oh where, have the co-eds 
sone." They were encored and sang 
the same selection backward. The 
extempore on "the necessity of in- 
tensive farming" by Drumm was of a 
more serious nature and was ably per- 
formed. Then followed the debate 
which proved to be the most interest- 
ing, most comical, and best perform 
ed debate of the year "Resolved that 
it is a greater sin for a hen to lay an 
egg on Sunday than to carry it over 
till Monday." It was supported on the 
affirmative by Shatmon and Brown W. 
and on the negative by Ard and Wea- 
ver. The affirmative strongly debated 
their side from a moral and scientific 
standpoint, while the negative came 
back forcibly from the economic and 
patriotic standpoint. The rebuttals 
were full of pep and Ard in his final 
appeal took such an eloquent flight 
of oratory, so aesthetic, so impressive, 
that when the final decision of the 
judges came the verdict was in favor 
of the negative. 

Then followed a comic monologue 
by Rine on "Bachelorhood" in which 
he appeared on the stage in full 
bachelor costume. His performance 
was good and he succeeded many 
times in provoking his hearers to 
laughter. Then came what was un- 
doubtedly the crowning feature of the 
evening, the darky sketch by Keam- 
erer and Lutton. This was a scream 
from beginning to end and the per- 
formers surely showe(' their extra- 
ordinary ability in reproducing the 
original art and tactics of the negro. 
Then followed a vocal solo accom- 
panied with a guitar by Lutton. This 
was entitled "Face to Face." 

The Herald was read by Harkins 
who changed its name to "The Blade" 
on account of its cutting remarks. 
The Sem. chorus then rendered an- 
other selection entitled "Its the wrong, 
wrong way to treat the co-eds." They 
sang as an encore "Good night ladies." 
The meeting was closed by singing 
hymn No. 189. 

The program as a whole was consid- 
ered the best and most entertaining 
that has been rendered in Clio for 
many months and the theologs deserve 
the commenadtion of all for their ex- 
cellent work. We feel sure that the 
absent ones missed a treat the like of 
which they may not be permitted to 
witness for days to come. The con- 
spicious absence of the female portion 
of Clio surely was without cause as 
nothing was said or even hinted at 
that might have possibly touched the 
modesty of the most - fastidious. 
Thanks to the theologs.

CLIO NOTES 
Clio's crowning achievement for the 
winter term was rendered on Friday 
evening before a most appreciative 
audience by the theologs. The meet- 
ing was opened by singing hymn No. 
104. Due to the absence of the regu- 
lar pianist, Mrs. Elmer Brown con- 
sented to officiate at the piano. Th-i 
religious exercises were conducted 
by the chaplain, Glmer Drown. James 
Shannon, secretary pro tern, then cal- 
led the roll and read the minutes. The 
regular program was opened very 
eomemndably by the Sem. chorus, 



The strength of a nation, we well 
know, is measured not in terms of 
wealth or volume of poplation, but 
love of truth and courage to defend it. 
We are strong In this war in precise 
proportion to our determination to 
banish autocratic greed and injustice 
from the earth. — Joseph Daniels. 



Y. M. C, A. 

There will be no Y. M. C. A. meet 
Ing this evening. The lecture by Dr. 
King takes the place of the regular 
meeting.

La.st Saturday evening during the

It brought back very vividly to some 
of our student.?, the old familiar lines 
in Vergil, "I sang of ARMS and the

Quite a number of the students 
went to Sunbury Sunday afternoon to 
hear ]>r. Byron King, who spoke to 
the men over in Zion's Lutheran 
Church. 

Since the weNher rignals are being 
displayed daily, it might be a good idea 
to know them. The white Hag alone

PHILO I 

I'liilo met for a short session last \ 
Friday night. The proerani was some- 
what depleted because of the special 
program at Clio but the society, decid- 
(h1 to proceed with the program rep- 
resented which was an follows: Miss 
Speiglemire declamed "Brady's Goat" 
in a very entertaining and di-amatic 
manner. An oration entitled "How 
Can Germany Hold Out?" was read by 
Miss Marion Weaver find was quite np 
to date and interesting. Mr. Swange • 
read tlie current new.- in a very ac- 
cej)tal)!e manner^ Mr. Wm. Deckei | 
edited "Philo" and read an interesting 
edition. His editorial was especially 
worthy of comment. On the extem- 
pore das.s-- .Mr. Weible rendered some 
delightful selections of ragtime on 
the piano and was encored. No other 
classes on the program were filled 
and the debate was excused by th<> 
(•hair. We hope that the next meeting 
will lie better attended and ir fuller 
progiam prepared.

NUMBER 20 



DR. BYRON W. KING PLEASES 
LARGE AUDIENCE WITH LECTURE 



Seibert Hall Filled to Capacity to Hear 
Noted Lecturer Speak on Subject "Pay 
Up or Quit 



•- ♦♦ 



Biggest treat lor years. That wag 
the sentiment expressed by all who 
were privileged to hear Dr. Byron W. 
King last Monday evening .when hp 
lectured in Seibert Hall on tj^e sub 
ject "Pay Up or Quit." 

From bogiuninc; to end he held the 
audience in breathless silence as ho 
discussed his uubject as a master. lie 
truly was master of his subject and 
expounded t so clearly and forcibly 
lliat all were enraptured in it. After 
his regular talk he gave a brief dis- 
course on the war conditions and 
showed up conditions in the wartorn 
countries in a most vivid way. Thru- 
out his lecture he had full controll of 
of the feelings of the audience and 
could cary them with hirti as he willed. 

Iir. King came to Selinsgrove in 
I he morning and in the afternoon gave 
two very interesting talks to the stn- 
"dents. At two o'clock he spoke to the 
college students in Science Hall and 
at three o'clock he addressed the theo- 
logical students. In these talks he 
.showed very clearly . the value of 
clear speech in ibe life of tod-^y and 
also to what extent the voice could be 
trained. 

Dr. King is a master in his line and 
has loyJil followers thruout the coun- 
Iry. He travels from coast to coast 
giving his lectures and we feel very 
fortunate in securing a date with him 
here. By many he is considered one 
of the greatest men in the country and 
as he was see^ here fulfilled all ex- 
pectations. There was no one disap- 
pointed in him and many are regret 
ting that they did not hear him and 
get in to contact with him. It was an 
honor to the school to have a man of 
his merits in her midst. 

This Ucture was the last of the Y. 
M. C. A. series. We feel that they 
have been a benefit to the college and 
the community. By having such a 
diversity of subjects we hoped to meet 
the demands of more people and we 
feel that we have done it. The bene- 
fit cannot be definitely known but it 
is doubtless considerable. We think 
all who helped make this course pos- 
sible. 



THE SOCK KNITTING ROSARY 

The hours I spend on thee, dear sock 
Are as a string of pearls to me, 
1 count them over by the weary clock. 
My Rosary, My Rosary! 

First two I knit, then two I purl, 
And round the leg I slowly reel— 
My joyful praises to heaven I hurl 
I've reached tlue heel. 

Oh, knotted ends that scratch and 

burn 
Oh, stitch that dropped— uneven row! 
I kiss each blight and strive at last 

to learn 
To reach the toe, O Lord, to reach 

the toe.— Collegian. 



FIELD SECRETARY NOTES 

It has been a long, long time since 
we had the privilege of speaking a 
word to our young friends thru the 
columns of this interesting journal. 
We are ..flying from place to place. 
Aiightiijg for a day or so, we eagerly 
.seek the current i.s.'-.ue of Susquehan- 
na and hungrily devour the news frtsm 
class room and campus. 

There has been a place every Sun- 
day since tlio opening of the current 
school yoar for us to toll the Htory of 
Susquehanna. We have been in many 
great cities, as well as in small towns 
and rural sections. The people all 
look alike to us. There are but a few 
differont temperaments and we meet 
the same people over and over again. 
It is our good fortune to meet only — or 
in the main — the good people. Sus- 
quehanna is an "open sesame" to 
hearts and homes wherever we go. 

We have worked this fall and winter 
in Altoona, Williamsport, Harrisburg 
York, Philadelphia, Trenton, Nov." 
York, Baltimore, Washington and 
mnny o'.her communities. It was our 
recent privilege to hear Billy Sunday 
in Washington, D. C. We attended 
four services — one afternoon and three 
evening. The Washington campaign 
is a very quiet one, as such things go 
with the great evangelist. The paper.* 
are not featuring his meetings. There 
is no organized opposition. Still the 
attendance in the wonderful tabern- 
acle is largo and there Is much enthus- 
iasm among the churches supporting 
the movement. 

These notes leave our hands Feb- 
ruary 23, from Blain, Perry county. 
Pa., where we have been for a week. 
It has been a rare pleasui-e to work 
with Pastor Reighard and his good 
people. This faithful little town is 
inhabited by splendid folks, many of 
whom are most loyal to Susquehanna. 
This is the home of Rev. John Har- 
kins, who graduates from our Iheo- 
logicel department this spring. Here 
lives Miss Leah Smith, one of our most 
promising music students. James 

Neidigh is from this coBiniunity. Ho 
is a good student in tho sophomore 
class. Other students have been 
with us in the past from this place, 
among them the pastor's daughter- 
Miss Mary. II was fine to meet the 
parents of those young friends and to 
hear them speak so highly as they did 
of the school. 

Susquehanna has groat boosters in 
Blain in the persons of Prof. Newton 
Kerstetter and wife (Miss Minerva 
Snyder), both Susquehanna peoplo. 
•Prof. Kerstetter is the principal of the 
high school, and under his direction 
great progress is being made. 

We hope that every member of tho 
senior class in college and seminary 
will become members of our Christ- 
mas Club. See us as to this. 
C. R. BOTSrORD, 

•Field Secretary. 



"CIIPTI RIICRET" TO 
BE GIVEN BY SENIS 



NINETEEN EIGHTEEN CLASS WILL

LENT COMEDY 



The Senior Class of the University 
is rehearsing a play which will b*^

this play is "Captain Racket" and is 
reported to be vei'y humorous. Pro- 
fessor Keener is playing the title role 
and he is supported ]i^ an excellent 
cast. 

The play is full ol' humor from be- 
ginning to end. Ono laugh follows an- 
other thruout, and the whole is a roar- 
ing comedy. If you have the blues o.' 
the down in the mouth or if there is 
anytlving elae wrong with you you 
must be sure to attend the play as it 
will be a sure cure for all such ail- 
ments. If you enjoy a good laugh and 
are in for ;: good time, you will be 
tliore sure for it will be the biggest 
time, of your life. No matter whether 
you are happy or sad, gay or melan- 
cholly, the play is the thing for you 
and you must not miss it. If you do 
you will regret it all the rest of your 
earthly existence. Preparo to attend 
it! 

Tlio linu! is not definlloly fixgd a.'= 
yet but the plans aie to hold it eilhoi' 
March 5th or 12lh ,ind the place will 
be "The Movies" Watch the bulletin 
boards, The SoHnsiyove Times, and 
The Susquehanna for further notices 
concerning this play. 



A LETTER FROM WM. T. HORTON 

Registrar Horlon sends another in- 
teresting letter from Monrovia, Cali- 
fornia. 

Because of tho many interesting 
trips that I havt' boon taking thru this 
beautiful count ly, I almost forgot my 
promise. 

After leaving Chicago the weather 
was somewhat milder, but all along the 
route passing thru Illiriois, Iowa, Mis- 
souri, Kansas, Te:cas, Now Mexico, ancl 
Arizona, we found they were having 
severe cold weatlur. Many htmdrods 
of cattle perished because of having 
no shelter and scarcity of grain. 

It was my pleasure to meet quite ^ 
few of the big men of the cattle rais- 
ing districts who had been east dis- 
posing of their stock. They tell us 
that it has been the worst year in 
their time to care for and market their 
great herds. 

Seeing the citie.s with their great 
industries all along the way, was a 
fullfillment of my wishes for many 
years. I learned to know the poopb^ 
on our coach and found them to l)o ii 
jolly bunch. This made it very pleas- 
ant for me, and after crossing the 
California line, I began to realize that 
W(> wore coming into the promised 
land. 

Tho fii.si .stop was Needles, and bu- 
lievo me I was overjoyed and I wished 
that all of our loved ones in the east 
could see and experience the wonder- 
ful change. 

With best wishes for all, • 
I remain. Yours very truly, 

WM. T. HORTON. 

It's all riKht to marry for love, but 
money makes liip martj go. 



COEDS DEFEATED AGAIN BY

For Second Time This Season Girls Forc-

Milton Next Saturday 



Our co-eds nu't defeat for the fir.-^t 
time this season on the home floor, 
when they were forced to bow to tho 
Williamsprt team in a hard fought 
game. The store was 21-7. Thus fvv 
our co-eds hav im I with only two do- 
I'uats, both at " ; '..s of llie lassi'-^s

a close score and on Saturday night

see their fa\ ..k( n into ca.nip 

by the visitois. AVilliamspcrt present- 
ed a wonderful team, l)y far the be.-t 
that ever appeared lu>ro. It was a 
much stronger team than tho one 
played abroad. Their team work was 
marvelous and their remarkable shoot- 
ing caused the downfall of our team. 

Our girls played hard and deserve 
credit for the gritty fight they put up 
but it was beyond them to hold the 
visitors in check. The battle had to 
,^0 to the strong. So closely were our 
lassies guarded that they were only 
able to ca.ge one goal, while the vIk- 
itors by clever short passing were 
able to cage nine. The visitors were 



exceptionally well trained and sliowed 
extraordinary endurance. 

While We are son\ lo liave lost this 
game, any one who saw it will not lay 
any blame on our team, fhey iought 
hard but were overpower (i.

THE ROAD TO VICTORY 
For the present there is scarcely 
anything so important to the Allied 
Cause as a little healthy possimism, a 
readiness to believe that the best is 
not inevitably true, and that tho worst 
is a possibility, that the Allies are 
not necessarily invincible nor the Gei- 
mans yet willing to admit that they 
are beaten. The truly, import ant thing 
is not the opinion of the people about 
the progress of tho war, but the ini 
portance which they attach to its ob- 
jectives, their determination to win 
them. The gravity of the present 
crisis will in no way i.hake the deter- 
mination of the American peoplo. V 
will steel their hearts, rouse their 
courage, deepen, their conviction in th*' 
necessity of victory. Only one thin;^ 
can cause the Alied defeat — a failure 
of conviction on the part of the Brit- 
i.'h, French and .American peoplo of 
the greatness of demceracy, of tho 
splendor of the moral crusade upon 
which they have enlisted, of the ne- 
cessity of victoiy to make tho world 
safe for democracy. 

—Roland O. I'sher. 



1919 LANTHORN 

The last part of tho 1919 Lanthorn 
goes to press tomorrow and the orders 
ought to be in this week. If you want 
a copy you must give your order to 
the management at once as no extra 
copies will bo ordered. Attend to 
this at once or you nuiy bo disappoint- 
ed. 



There is a truth hidden under the 
old legend; Hope retained strengthens 
man to endure and preserve in the 
rush and wear, the loss and overflow 
of life. The best laid plans so sadly 
fail; the unexpected thwarts desire 
and endeavor; forces seen and unseen 
contend for the mastery. But to the 
on(^ who with purpose true and cheer- 
ful heart fights the battle of life, hop- 
ing in the darkest hour, a victory is 
sure. It was hope that nerved the dis- 
coverer to find this great land, thu.^ 
silencing the sneers of the rich and 
mighty, and demonstrating his own 
theory. It was hope that helped the 
great commander to win his battles 
against fearful odds. It was hope that 
strengthened the burdened President 
to carry the weight of war and cal- 
umny, of innumerable oflicial duties, 
so that thru it all, serenity, courtesy 
and calm discretion marked the per- 
formance of each day's requirements. 
We have sometimes met the man of 
marked ability and efl^ciency who has 
let escape this gift 6f hope. The droop- 
ing of the lines about the mouth, the 
depressing influence of his conversa- 
tion are noted in contrast to the in- 
spiration and vigor imparted by tho 
one who refuses to allow distrust and 
apprehension to linger in mind and 
heart. — Luther I^oague Review. 



1918 LANTHORN 
There are still a few copies of the 
191S Lanthorn left which the class 
are selling out at reduced rates. If 
you want one apply at once as the 
supply is about gone.

EDITORIAL 

Someone remarked the other day 
that a "perverted .sense of humor vaxs 
better than no sense of humor at all." 
Granted. But knowing full well that 
we are running- the ri.sk of being ac- 
cused of the greater evil of having no 
sense of humor at all, we cannot help 
remarking what a mighty power this 
sen.'^e of humor has in determining onr 
outlook upon life, and how subtly its 
perversion may turn our thoughts in- 
to narrow channels. If it is not a di- 
rect cau.se of provincialism, as we may 
be led to believe, it is at least, an un- 
failing indication of it. 

Many a jovial lyceum lecturer has 
taken for his text the iimeworn para- 
phrase, "Tell me what a man laughs 
at, and I'll tell you what he is," and 
the saddest part of it for some of us 
is, that its true! The funny bone is a 
pretty good index of character. When 
some coarse jest releases the coarser 
bray of the village wag, we at once 
place him on a lower plane than the 
man whose modulated laugh follows 
the clever but genial quip of the true 
humorist. The diflerence in the senses 
of humor largely determine the rfls- 
finctions between the "lower" and the 
"higher" forms of stage piesentations. 
The vaudeville audience that roars nt 
"slapstick" comedy we rate lower than 
the Shakespearian house that is high- 
ly amused at the wit of Touchstone. 

In general then, we may judge folks 
by their attitude" toward matters of 
humor. To bring this conclusion homo 
to Susquehanna, we feel that tlio blunt- 
ncss of our faculties for humor here 
should form a subject of some deep 
thought. Our provincialism has ex- 
pressed itself many times in our stil- 
ted and homely jokes. Instead of a 
pure healthy type of humor, we have 
rome perilously near to developing a 
habit of seeing ludlcrousness in every- 
thing. Our schoolmates we regard as 
a queer collection of odds and ends of 
society, overlooking thfir belter qual- 
ities. Every movement that posses- 
ses any intitative is at once made the 
butt of numerous inane witticisms, 
without regard to its merit. We are 
1 in scratching about in 
1li(> dried acorns of ridi- 
forget to look above and 
admire the growth of the sturdy oak 
of serious purpose. And worse than 
that, we are throwing the dust about, 
to prevent others from seeing. 

We have no reason to believe that 
our college Is any different from oth- 
ers in this respect. Youthful ex- 
uberance will out. To one delving in 
bistory, philosophy, and other abstract 



.sulijects, the world of affairs must ap- 
pear, not as a world of struggling anil 
testing, fearing, and hoping, living 
and dying, but as-a world of odd folks, 
the blind leading the blind, and both 
falling into the ditch; which seems 
very tunny to the average student with 
his typical college provincialism. 

Continual solemnity in young peo- 
ple is of course almost a crime; 
everybody should look for the brighi 
side of things, and we would be the 
last to deny anyone this wondeiful 
privilege, but to perpetually feed on 
the foibles and frailties of people is 
unworthy of us as students. It is too 
narrow to be consistent with our 
ideals of college life. 



FOOD CONSERVATION 

In compliance with a request from 
the government that a course in food 
conservation be established in all the 
colleges and institutions of learning, 
Susquehanna has decided to institute 
such a course this spring. 

In at least two of the departments 
such courses will bo started. In place 
of the usual Spring Term electives 
these courses will be used. The mat- 
ter was placed before the upper clas- 
ses and they decided that this should 
be done. One department will stu.dy 
the chemistry of the food problem and 
the other deparement will take up the 
other matters. 

This is a very good thing at this 
time and shows the loyalty of Susque- 
hanna and all connected with her. In 
the past Susquehanna has always done 
her part and she is not slow in taking 
these advanced steps. The student:; 
are back of the faculty in this for- 
ward step and all will work together 
for the success of the innovation.

WHY WE ARE FIGHTING 

That liberty, the .sacred inheritanco 
of the American people, may be per- 
petuated; that the sacrifices of the 
Patriots of '76 have not been in vain: 
that we may continue t'le conduct of 
affairs of our nation in accordanco 
with our own believs and desires; that 
our citizens may travel the highways 
of the "World and sail the seas unmo 
tested, and that we shall not submit 
to the domination of an ambition-mad- 
dened autocracy, the United States 
has entered the great conflict which 
is shal<ing the very foundations of the 
world. Having taken this step, thero 
can be no turning back until we hav? 
fought the war to a finish, to victory, 
pnd to a peace-settlement which will 
insure American posterity against th<' 
repitition of Huch a war. I believe a 
repetition of .such a war. I believe a 
peace will come with the extermina- 
tion of the viruK which has brought 
practically the whole world into war — 
Prussian Militarism. So there can be 
lut one issue before the American 
people — the viprorouB and successful 
prosecution of the war To that end 



everything else must be subordinated, 
and every effort of our boys at the 
front must be sustained by a self-sac- 
riflcing patriotic people at home. 

—John W. Weeks. 



ODE TO A GIRL 



After the Preceptress Has Changed 
the Tables at the Dorm 



Lulu, Lulu, how I miss you, 
There beside me while I eat. 

How I need your cheerful chatter, 
As I view the Cream of Wheat, 

When I see the gravy coming, 
Much I need your bright remarks, 

You who kept the watier running, 
Till his dizzy head saw sparks. 

Now the toasted flakes are dryer, 
Now tlie milk is deeper blue, 

And the cause of it dear Lulu, 
Is J'm longing just for you. 

But the months will fly by quickly, 
Bringing sunshine, cloud, and rain- 

Then perhaps we'll be together. 
Farewell, till we eat again. — Ex.

My dear sir:— Enclosed find check

I have indeed a very warm spot in 
my heart for the Institution or rather, 
an It was called in my days '71 and •7r., 
Missionary Institute. If the students 
ot today are getting as much more out 
of the University, according to the im- 
provements made In recent years, 
than those of us who were the boys 
and girls then, they will certainly, go 
out into the world well prepared for 
tlieir life work. May God grant that 
this is true. 

Sincerely yours,

COLLEGE NOTES 

Steininger 21, spent the week-end at 
his home in Lewistown. 

We were all truly glad to welcome 
the visit of several of our soldier boys

ruff, Huntington and Aikens. 

Cole '20, spent the Sunday at Sun- 
bury with his sister. 

Wagner spent Sunday at his home 
in McClure. 

Crowl '21, and Shannon 21, spent the 
week-end under the parental roof.

Kauffman '21 and Benfer '21, visited

THE PET FLEA 

Pet fleas have been introduced on 
the continent to some extent, and in 
some families have supplanted the dog 
having wormed their way into the af- 
fection and anatomy of evei-y member. 

They are easily fed, very lively and 
affectionate and almost human in their 
intelligence. 

It is not well to start with an old 
flea. Secure an infant of good breed 
and bring him up yourself. In a short 
time he will be greatly attached to 
you. He should be kept in the house 
or green house during the cold weath- 
er, but on warm sunshiny days he can 
go out for a good jump. In case the 
wind blows have a good blanket for 
him to wear. 

Do not permit your flea to go out 
alone. lie might bo persuaded to go 
off with some dog, and you would 
never look into his eyes again. 

If possible see that your flea has 
three good meals a day. He will be 
better for it. Also keep water where 
he can take a drink v;hen necessary. 
Many fleas arc born with a terrible 
thirst. 

Examine him occasionally to see 
that he is in good condition. If he 
wags his tail freely you may know he 
is alright.— Ex.

JOTS AND BLOIS FROM 
THE COLLEGt GiPUS 



Song writing is becoming a popular 
fad around Susquehanna. The song 
hit published in last week's issue is 
no longer the latest. With Ihe peimis- 
.sion of the co-eds we now publiaji two 
stanzas of the latest song as sung by 
them at the basketball game between 
the Theologs and Selin.'igrove Ex-high; 

Oh here, oh here are the fair co-eds, 
Right here, liglit here you see, 

With pride we beam for one theolog 
team, 
.Just see, just see us now. 

The girls are here, it would be quite 
queer, 
To try to stay away now. 
When the theologs play tiny win th<^ 
day. 
Just see, jusi see us now.

SUSQUEHANNA CO-EDS 
AGAIN WIN BY BIG MARGIN 



In thewe times all scales of value are 
being remade. Some commoditioa 
have declinod. I understand that the 
bottom has dioi)i)od out of the market 
for European guide books. Some com- 
modities have risen — ask the house- 
keeper. 

The same is liappeninK among per- 
sons. On every hand are those who 
have not the same sense of worth as 
before the war. Hei'c is one of the 
keenest and least appreciated fypes of 
suffering that tlie war has brought. 
But others v,;';ir a new value. Many 
scientists and doetors and nurses arc- 
To be classified here. 

Here I would also place the mis- 
sionaries, and thofje who are looking 
forward to missionary work. Their 
capacities and conr-eptions, their atti- 
tudes and visions, provoke the ques- 
tion, Who knovv'cth v.hetlier thou art 
not come to the kingdom for i;uch a 
time as this? 

First I name the eapacity for seeing 
differences and fef>]inp; horror. Awfiy 
back in Genesis it is written that God 
divided the light from the darkness. 
I3ut many have such poor eyesight that 
to them the whole world Iooks f?rey; 
they never take sides, they avoid ev- 
erything extreme and thorough-going' 
in their model discriminations; they 
prate "it will all be the same in a 
hundred years." They are so judicial 
that they never render a decision. 
They refuse to he horrified at the 
greatest wrongs. Ildve these wrongs 
not always existed? Is not that which 
appears a new evil really an old evil 
in a new dress? They are morally 
neutral because they are blind to con- 
trasts. The fareign missionary is the 
reverse of all this. For him black is 
black and while is while and neither 
is grey. He is able to recognize the 
devil when he m< i ts him on the street 
or sees him upon a liirone."" His world 
is the battle-field of opposites. Men 
must take sides In cause it will make 
a dilfeience, not only a luindr.^d years 
Irom now but ten thousand years from 
now. He is horrified at the caste sys- 
tem in India, the condition of the 
womanhood of Islam, the childtiood of 
Africa. It disturbs Ips dreams that 
these thing.s mii^ht !h improved and 
are not. Surel> we do not need to 
argue thai this lype of man is needed 
at this hour. 

A second great need is for interna- 
tional intelligence. If there had been 
more of that^in the world four jears 
ago there might have been no war. 
Some time ve -liall think it comedy 
to look back and see h«w consistently 
one great government guessed wrong 
They guessed wrong on India and he- 
land; neither ha.s made serious revolt. 
Both are fighUng with the Allies. 
They guessed wrong mi Italy; she 
could not be madi to accept an aggres- 
sive Wa.s as defensive. They guessed 
wrong en England; Albion did not 



wash her hands of Europe's need. 
They gue.ssed wrong on France; she is 
more than the home of sentimentalit- 
ies. They guessed wrong very, very 
wrong about America. A little interna- 
tional intellipiiii 1' might have saved 
many thin-s: 

But there i.s need of more than in- 
ternational information. We need a 
philosophy of internationalism, some 
workable theory of world life. Again 
I turn t o (h'rmany as a pathetic exam- 
ple. Why haf- her history as a colo- 
nizing i o,-,-, r hfon so dreary? Why, 
in Alsacj and Lorraine and Belgium, 
where her oAicials have really desired 
to be popuhir, have they hern met 
with uninea.sured opposition? Why, if 
not because Germany lacks any theory 
of international cooperation? 

And wh( re are you goi^g to gee in- 
ternaticnal intelligence? I know no 
better place to go than to the mission- 
ary folk. They have the- information. 
They n.c v^riting most of o*]r good 
books on ilie lives of foreign peoples. 
Their leader.-: are frequently summon- 
ed to V.'ashinglon- for conference at 
the stiiK' denartnuMit, They have a 
workinii theory of international life. 
It is St. Paul's oId_ thought about a di 
versify of gifts and a unity of spiii'. 
They are standing by this ideal fs 
never luiore. Time was when their 
quest for a world united in the king- 
dom of God laid eniphasifj on unessen- 
tials. All details were to be run into 
a single mold. Once they asked that 
all food and dress and language be 
made omi- ;iecordiug to thqir own 
ideas. Now they want to keep the 
native food so far as it is wholesome' 
the nafivi' ds^ .- ■. so far as it is decent, 
the native language, so far as it can 
be made lo^ express Christian ideas 
Once tin y wnnted all institutions and 
customs and forms of thought to be 
transformed. Now they seek rather to 
purify and infuse existing institutions 
and ciis^toras with a new spirit and to 
stimulate native forms of thought to 
make their own original contributions 
to our Chriwtian interpretations. But 
Willi this inii rnational tolerance, 
wliich is a part of international Intel 
ligence. there goes an eciually Intelli 
gent in !(jle ranee, A good member of 
the family wants e\ (uy other niemhiM- 
to live- his or hi r own life, hut is

"WORLD PATRIOTISM" 

DISCUSSED BY MINISTER 

( Continued from First Page) 
the vision, the more subtle i.s the temp- 
tation. Loyalty must be focussed. We 
smile at the teacher of domestic sci- 
ence who herself keeps an untidy 
house. The biggest thing that parents 
can do for the childhood of the world 
Is to rear their own children well. A 
man does not serve his state by a 
vague devotion. He does it through 
particular duties faithfully performed. 
One serves the world in the first in- 
stance by serving one's own country. 

Here again I find that the mission- 
ary folk have the gift we need. The 
missionary goes out to save the world, 
but to save it by saving some little 
corner of the whole. The missionary 
makes citizens of the kingdom of God 
but he does that by making better citi- 
zens of some Chinese or Indian or 
African village. 

We need a focussed loyalty, yet even 
that is not enough. We need a spirit 
htat dwells above racial differences 
and national antipathies. Wo need a 
capacity for national repentance and 
something to make each nation the 
keeper of all others. At the outbreak 
of this war we were impressed by the 
unity of the mLssionary world. Un- 
familiar treasuries were opened to 
keep the work of German misisonaries 
from collapsing. In India at the very 
moment when that empire was sup- 
posed to be honeycombed with German 
intrigue, English missionaries took the 
German missionarios into their own 
homes, and in England sacrificial of- 
ferings were made in the churches to 
support the missionaries of the veiy 
nation whose governnienl was shoot- 
ing English boys to pieces. When ev- 
ery other tic was snapping the mission 
ary tie si ill held. If there were one- 
half as much Christianity in the for- 
eign offices of our great governments, 
if men of missionary temper wer3 
controlling, there never would have 
been any war. And this for no nega- 
tive reason. These are just the men 
to see the iniquity of the Serbian 
murder and the violation of Belgium 
and the sinking of the Lusitania. The 
difference would be that the govern- 
ments needing to recognize the wrong 
would do so. Then, on the basis of 
this capacity for national repentance, 
would bo roared that structure of 
positive and creative goodwill which 
will put an end to all war. 

Some time this war will end. Some 
time the nations will sit in counsel to 
make a peace. Then it will be Im- 
measurably important whether that 



peace is made in a backward looking 
spirit or a turwaid looiung spirit. Tiie 
stories oi' iniiii ii i\ !■ iiianl<ind ;iic lull 
of blood f( uds, where il was held te 
be a point of honor that every life 
taken nuisi hf iiaicl foi- with a life. 

In 1H7<' (Iciinany tiiclated a peace 
She made it baeliward looking. She 
took Alsace and Lorraine; she extorted 
a huge indemnity. Thereby she did 
the world and herself immeasurable 
wrung, guaranteeing yeai's of hatred 
and laying the train for future explo- 
sions. Shall this war be fought for a 
past that can never be recalled? Shall 
peace be made looking backward? 
That were a treason, worse than all 
other treasons put together; that were 
to waste all the blood and tears of 
these dark days. 

Again we may appeal to the mission- 
aries. Feeling the sins of men as few 
others ever feel them, they go out not 
to punish but to redeem. "Vengeance 
is mine," saith the Lord. They stand 
before the burnt-out cinder heaps of 
humanity and prophesy new life. There 
is not degradation enough in Mexico, 
nor pride enough in Japan, nor con- 
servation enough in China, nor misery 
enough in India, nor fatalism enough 
in Turkey, that they cannot forget it 
all, or at least disregard it all, and 
labor in the certainty of a better mor- 
row. Ever since Jesus came to make 
all things new and Paul forgot the 
things that were behind to stretch on 
to the things that were before, the 
missionaries have toiled not because 
of the past but for the future.— North 
American Student. 



Of all the hundreds of pictures. 
That hang on Memory's wall. 

The one of the bald-headed student. 
Is the funiest one of all. 

I see him stand in the limelight ; 

I hear him rant and rave; 
I hear him vowing vengeance. 

As his head they calmly shave. 

From the class-room 1 see him des- 
cending, 
And I know by his hardened face, 
He has learned he is not "Independ- 
ent," 
He must step at the Freshman pace. 

Do you think, O black-eyed musician, 
Decause you could sweetly play 

You could calm their rising spirits, 
And melt their commands away? 

No, they had you fast in their fortress. 
And they cut all your bonny hair. 

They burdened your head \rith noth- 
ing. 
Hut they loaded your pride with care. 

For now a green wig is your head- 
dress. 
To wear till the end of time, 
And I know the example you've set 
them, 
Will make all the Fieshies sublime.

ALUMNI NOTES 

Miss Emily B. Rayman, C. of M. 
'15, of Munliall, has been elected to the 
faculty of the Munhall High School 
as teacher of typewrit ing. Up to the 
lime of her election to this position 
Miss Rayman had been secretary to 
the superintendent of schools in the 
same city. 

Rev. Walter H. Traub '12, has re- 
signed his pastorate at Grace Church, 
State College, to accept a call to Trin- 
ity Church at Hughesville, taking ef- 
fect March 1st. 

Rev. Clyde W. Schaeffer 10 and 16, 
pastor of the Lutheran charge at Liver- 
pool, has been elected principal of tho 
Liverpool High School for the rest of 
the year to fill the vacancy caused by 
the former principal's enlisting in the 
army. During the past week Rev. 
Shaeffer conducted a campaign in the 
schools for the Junior Red Cross and 
secured a 100 per cent, membership. 

Rev. P. M. Kinports '17, pastor of 
the Lutheran church at Aspinwall, has 
been having marked success in his 
charge. During his six months of 
service the church debt has been re- 
duced $500 and recently by bequest 
the church was the recipient of $2,000. 
This practically frees the church of 
debt. Fifteen new members have 
been received thus far and the outlook 
is for a good Easter season. 

Rev. John B. Kniseley '16, pastor of 
the Port Royal charge, has been ap- 
pointed Juniata County Chairman of 
the Lutheran War Commission Fund 
and is having remarkable success. 
The quota for the county was $1000 
and already there are 1600 members. 
He is also serving as secretary for the 
local Red Cross. Recently the church 
and parsonage were fitted with elec- 
tric lights which added a great im- 
provement. 

NOTICE ALUMNI:— A typograph- 
ical error in last week's issue made 
the term "Inky Howitzers" read "Inky 
Bewitzers." But we still want news 
from you just the same. — Alumni Ed.

CLIO 

A very interesting program was 
rendered by the members of the Clion- 
ian Literary Society Friday evening, 
March 1. In the absence of the regu- 
lar president, the Society was called 
to order by Pres. protem Harkins. 
Devotional exercises were conducted 
by Mr. Drumm; following which was 
a very Select Reading by Mr. Hoff- 
man. Mr. Steininger '21, read an ex- 
cellent essay on The Corruptness in 
Politics. The debate: Resolved, That, 
the criticism of the Administration,

supported on the affirmative by 
Messrs. Naugle C. and Gortner; on the 
negative by Williamson and Dinnison. 
The judges decided in favor of the 
affirmative. 

The society was given an exception- 
al treat by the Messrs. Shobert and 
Goss in the rendition of a Clarinet- 
Cornet duet. A very thoughtful ex- 
tempore was given by Mr. Mlddles- 
w^orth on The Inconsistencies of Life. 
The Herald, which proved itself rich 
and. spicy, was read by assistant edit- 
or Goss. 



WHEN THE WAR WILL END 

Absolute knowledge have I nine. 
But my aunt's washerwoman's sister's 

son. 
Heard a policeman on his beat. 
Say to a laborer on the street. 
That he had a letter just last week. 
Written in the finest Greek, 
From a Chinese cooUie in Timbuctoo, 
Who said the negros in Cuba knew 
Who got it straight from a circus 

clown. 
That a man in Klondike heard the 

news 
From a gang of South American Jews, 
About somebody in Borneo, 
Who heard a man who claimed to 

know, 
Of a swell society female fake. 
Whose motherinlaw will undertake 
To prove that her seventh husband'a 

Bister's niece 
Had stated in a printed piece 
That she has a son who has a 

friend 
That knowa when the war is going to 

end.— Trench and Comp.

FORMER PRILOS GIVE 
EXCELLENT PROGRAM 



FORMER MEMBERS OF PHILO RE- 
TURN AND GIVE ENTERTAIN. 
ING PROGRAM 



Philo Literary Society met in full 
force on Friday evening to enjoy a 
program to be rendered by ex-mem- 
bers of Phjio. Tlip hall was crowded 
to the door? so great was the expecta- 
tion of the student body in regard to 
this program and they were not in the 
least disappointed. The regular order 
of business was dispensed with and 
Mr. Harkins was appointed to act as 
chaplain. The society elected Dr. H. 
A. Allison to honorary membership. 
The following program was carried 
out and thoroughly enjoyed: "Mirandy 
On First Aid to Matrimony" was the 
subject of the select reading dramat- 
ically read by Miss Mary Phillips. 
Miss Ruth Herman delightfully sang 
"An Old Riddle" by Neidlinger. Mrs. 
Hobart in her usual artistic manner 
played for her violin solo "Adagio" by 
Ries and her encore was "Alia Vin- 
geresca" by Tscheschulin. The Cur- 
rent News by Miss Sara Manhart was 
comprehensive, instructive and hum- 
orous. Miss Catherine Schoch de- 
lightfully played on the piano "Calf- 
rhoe, Air de Ballet" by Charminade. 
"Philo" was read by Mr. Geo. Schoch. 
Ho reminisced in his editorial. The 
main article was a patriotic appeal 
entitled "Wake Up, America! Speed 
Up!" which was followed by witty 
jokes and quibs. Prof. Meyer artist- 
ically and masterfully played "To The 
Sea" and "Song" by MacDowell. In 
recollections Mr. Schnure gave some 
interesting historical facts and a des- 
cription of the old society hall in Sel- 
insgrove Hall. He told of the interest 
and life of the meetings of those days 
and the dedication of the present 
Philo Hall in the Gustavus Adolphus 
building in the spring of the year 1895 
in connection with which he read an 
account in a paper of that time of the 
dedication June 4, 1895. This number 
was especially interesting and delight- 
ful to the audience. The question for 
debate. Resolved that the United 
States should have broken relations 
with Germany at the sinking 6f the 
Lusitania, was debated on the aflBrm- 
ative by Prof. E. R. Wingard who 
upheld his side alone in the absence of 
Mr. John Wagenseller and the negative 
of the question was supported by 
Messrs. Frank Wagenseller and Marion 
Schoch. The debate waxed quite 
wai-fii and exciting and the judges 
rendered their decision in favor of the 
lone debater of the aflirmative. The 
program as a whole was quite excel- 
lent. Such an alumni program offers 
much* encouragement to the under- 
graduate members of Philo both by 
recounting to them the old spirit of 
Philo and also exhibiting to them the 
invaluable experience that is derived 
from active work in Philo._ We are 
Indeed grateful to the performers for 
their inspiration and the instructive 
entertainment they rendered for Philo 
and friends. May Philo long live to 
produce many more such accomplished 
performers on the platform who may 
come back in future years to perform 
for future Philos and oemonstrate the 
betieflts received in Philo Hall. 



MILTON HIGH SCHOOL 
GIVEN SECfO DEFEAT 

FOR SECOND TIME THIS YEAR 
THE ORANGE AND BLACK LOW- 
ERED TO SUSQUEHANNA COEDS 



In a return game played at Milton 
Saturday evening Susquehanna's co- 
eds again defeated the Milton High 
team by the score of 17-16. The game 
was close and was hard fought. 

Our lassies were much handicapped 
by the small floor but at last iound 
themselves and began scoring. Milton 
scored first when Tate made a field 
goal soon followed f»y two fowls. Then 
Fetterolf in short order tallied three 
goals and Woodruff one. Durin^this 
half Woodruff shot three fouls making 
the score of the half 11-5 with Susque- 
hanna in the lead. 

In the second half MiltoriTried hard 
to win by one means or another and 
came very near doing it. One. foul 
after another was called on our team 
and for a time the outlook was not 
very good. The score was tied at 12 
and then the favor switched from on > 
side to the other until 16-15 was reach- 
ed. The time was getting very short 
and Milton was getting hilarious about 
the victory when their hopes were 
dashed to the ground by Fetterolf 
making a basket and immediately af- 
terwards the whistle was blown end- 
ing the game and giving Susquehanna 
the victory from the jaws of defeat. 

It i;j not our desire to say much 
about the officiating or other,details of 
the game as not much good can be 
said of it so we will pass it over. 

The line-up was as follows:

Those who were privileged to attend 
the student recital in Seibert Hall 
Thursday evening witnessed a ran^ 
treat. Tho the program was given by 
lamp light, the electric lights being 
out of order, it was a marked success. 
indeed it is the opinion of all present 
that this recital was ihe best of the 
year. Every number was exceptional 
ly well rendered and spoke well for 
this department of our school. The 
instructors of the Conservatory are to 
be congratulated for turning out such 
excellent products from their depart- 
ment. Everything was a success from 
beginning to end and i lie different per- 
formers are worthy of nuich commend- 
ation. The following program was

SUSQUEHANNA GIRLS 
LOSEJJEMPLE 0. 

IN A VERY HARD FOUGHT GAME 
OUR GIRLS FORCED TO TASTE 
DEFEAT BY PHILA. TEAM 



Our coeds were forced to taste de- 
feat again in their final game of the 
season last night when they vrcre 
beaten by the fast Temple University 
team from Philadelphia. The game 
was fast and good from first to last 
and it was not till the final whistle 
was blown that the desision was sure. 
The final score was 25-20. 

The game started with a rush and 
before long Schoch haa bagged a goal. 



BRIEF SUMMARY OF 
BASKETJLL SEASON 

1918 BASKETBALL SEASON ENDS. 
A GREAT SUCCESS FOR COEDS. 
WIN SEVEN LOSE THREE 



With the Temple ^ame last night 
the 1918 season was brought to a close. 
We feel that this sea.':'on has been a 
great success. In all t«>n games were 
played, seven at home and three 
abroad. Of these ten games the (i)eds 
won scv(>n and lost three. The girla 
received good support from the stu- 
dents ami everyone lulped boost to 
victory. Everyone was proud of the 
learn. On the trips away many stu- 



Then Temple retaliated and from that Ueiils acenmpanied the team and ad

on the score remained almost equal 
till the end of the first half when the 
score stood 11-10. 

Second half opened strong for Tem- 
ple. Several goals and many fouls 
were made. The Temple foul shooter 
was exceptionally good and it was by 
fouls that we lost. 

This game was the last of the season 
and the girls were very anxious to win 
but the fates were against them and 
they were forced to lower their colors 
to the visitors. Tho they put up an 
excellent fight they were forced to ac- 
knowledge defeat. This makes three 
games lost this season yet we cannot 
say that the season h;is not been a 
success. Indeed the school can feel 
proud of their Coed team. It has ad- 
vertised the school quite widely and 
is worthy of much ju-aise.

ded to the .spirit of ilie team. 

The game last niulu was the last 
for several of the players. Captain 
Fetterolf, Catherine Persing and 
Dorothy Rearick will graduate this 
year. Thi se iiirls have been faithful 
players durin.u tlK-ir tim(> in school and 
the team will iniss Ihem when they 
arc gone. Notwithstanding this the 
outlook for a good team next year is 
very good. With Woodruff, C. Schoch 
and L. Schoch of this year's team and 
Botsford, Allison and Mowrer of the 
reserves a ,guod team can be built. 
There are sovi'ral other girls who are 
also showing up good for next year so 
that a winning team can be expected. 

Following is a brief summary of tho 
season : 

Sunbury High School 
The Co-Eds opened the season Jan- 
uary 11th very auspiciously by defeat- 
ing the Sunbury High School team 
20-3. The game was a very easy one 
for our girls and they were able to 
score at will. The results of this 
game and the manner of our girls' 
playing gave a .sure sign of a success- 
ful season. 

Mount Carmel Game 
Mt. Carmel, the great rivals of Sus- 
quehanna, came to Selinsgrove Jan- 
uary 18th and met defeat at the hands 
of our girls by the decisive score of 
31-7. For many years this team ha.s 
been a bitter rival of the local team 
and many times in the past our girls 
have had to suffer defeat at their 
hands. But this \ear Ihe tables were 
turned and veiv dei idedly. The su- 
periority of ilii.s >eai'.-. team was here 
asain shown much to ihe delight of 
I lie .student Ijodj'. 

LewJGburg Gam« 
What was teniied to be tht- best 
game of the season up to that time was 
played in the gviii January 26th when 
lli(- wi-11 known iiiid \iry fast team 
liom Lewisbiii K \\Hs defeated by tho 
score of 13 G. The game was hard

AURORA BOREALIS 

During the time the northern light:-? 
wore visible last Thursday evening 
the question was oflen heard, whai ni.- 
they, and what c:uises Uiem. We are 
giving below a bri< I (uiline of what 
science tells us eouciTning them: 

"The aurora boreal is (oflen called 
the northern lights) is a beautiful 
luminosity, straited and variable, seen 
at irregular intfrvals. nnd only a1 
night. From tlic gcneial laitiiude of 
the United States, n apitcars as a sofi 
vibrating radiance, sti earning up moat 
often into the northern sky, occasional- 
ly as far as the zenith but usually in 
a semicircle or arcli extendinu upword 
not ofer nO degrees. Its probaide 
average height is about 7" miles. The 
aurora generally greenish yellow in 
color, has occasionally been seen of a 
deep rose hue, as well as pale blue, 
and other tints. The continual vibra- 
tion, sometimes the rapid pulsation, of 
its streamers, gives it a character of 
mystery only too well enhanced by our 
lack of knowledge of its causes. That 
these are connected with the magnet- 
ism of the earth is certain; also that a 
strong influence upon the magnetic 
needle is somehow exerted. Telegraph 
instruments and all otlier magnetic 
aparatus are greatly disturlied when 
the auroras are brightest. This won- 
derful spectacle grows more frequent 
and pronounced, as tiie north pole is 
approached; and is closely connected, 
tho in a manner ineomiiletely under- 
stood, with the period of sunspots, and 
the protuberances. When there are 
many sunspots, auroras are most fre- 
quent and intense. Probably they are 
merely an electric luminosity of very 
rare gases. There is a similar phe- 
nomenon in the southern hemisphere 
where it is called aurora australis. 
Both are called aurora polaris. 



(Continued from First Page) 
Lewisburg Game 

For the second time the co-eds met- 
ed out defeat to the Lewisburg team 
and this time on their own floor Feb- 
ruary 9th. The score was 25-9. It 
was quite a blow to the Lewisburg 
team to be deetated on their home 
floor but they were unable to with- 
stand the superior playing of our 
girls. A large crowd of students ac- 
companied the team and perhaps ad- 
ded to the spirit of the team. 
Lock Haven Game 

Lock Haven was the next victim to 
fall before our girls and they did this 
February 16th by a very decisive score 
;?.3-16. Both teams played good ball 
and fought hard but the Susquehanna 
lassies were too much for the visitors 
and the opponents were forced to low- 
er their colors. 

Williamsport Game 

Now again came a sad and humilat- 
ing defeat. February 23rd the Will- 
iamsport team again bwamped the lo- 
cal team. This time by a score of 
21-7. The game was a very rough one 
and caused the playing of Boys' rules 
to be abandoned as too strenuous for 
girls to play. Tho our girls put up a 
game fight and some of both teams a 
"real fight" the final result v.-as against 
them. It was deeply felt to be beaten 
twice by the same team. 

Milton High Game 

On March 2nd our girls were again 
permitted to taste the pleasure of vic- 
tory when they defeated the team from 
Milton High School by the very de- 
cisive score of 41-14. Girls rules were 
used and a rather slow game was th? 
result. Our forwards were able to 
.shoot one goal after another almost at 
will and the final result showed the 
effect.

COLLLEGE NOTES 

Cole '20, visited at his home in Ber- 
wick over Sunday. 

Janson '20, spent the week-end at 
his home in Enhaut. 

Among those who accompanied the 
team to Milton on Saturday were the 
following: Neideigh, Lecrone M. A., 
Lecrone E. K., Speiglemire, Decker 
and Staib. 

Don't forget the Senior Class play 
next Tuesday. Buy your tickets early. 

As this is the last issue of The 
Susquehanna in the winter term, we 
wish you all a happy and prosperous 
spring term. 

Mr. Luck, for personal reasons, has 
left the halls and walls of S. U. to 
take up his abode elsewhere.

! foundation for the structure. The 
completed building evidence of the 
care used and the plan of the building 
determines the care to be used. More 
care is exerted in the building of a 
fine, large structure than in a small, 
ugly house. Life is the greatest build- 
ing a man ever constructs and there- 
fore should consume the most care 
and skill. Moreover the building of 
life is permanent. The good and the 
bad parts remain. Mistakes cannot be 
torn down and rebuilt. A good founda- 
tion is given and a good building 
should result. Teachers, preachers 
and parents aid young people in their 
building. We are building for etern- 
ity and we should be continually 
building and well. It costs to build 
well both in this world and in the con- 
struction of life. But it costs more to 
build wrong. An ill built structure 
may result in the ruin and loss of all.

The Senior play "Captain Racket" 
will be given at "The Movies" Tuesday 
evening, March 19th, at 8:15 p.m. 
Tickets are being sold by the different 
members of the Senior class. The 
prices are 25c and 35c. The 25c tick- 
ets are for general admission while 
the 35c tickets entitle the holders to a 
reserved seat. Beginning today the 
seat board will be placed in Bulick's 
clothing store where all those having 
tickets can have them reserved. The 
outlook is for a large audience so you 
had better attend to the matter at 
once of having your seats marked off.

Captain Racket is the greatest pre-

is undone in the play March 19th. 



Perhaps some still doubt that the 
German government planned, almost 
from the first, to make us pay the 
costs of its war. But even these can- 
not doubt that, today, it hopes to make 
us pay them — and not alone in money. 
If Germany wins she must look to us 
for indemnity, for In bankrupt Europe 
QO one will be capable of paying, and 
the German government must have 
indemnity to face domfstic revolution. 
But it is not that alone that Germany 
craves. The claws and fangs of the 
blonde beast are red; but not yet is 
the beast glutted. Still it longs for 
pillage, for mtirder, and for rapine 
Beware! The fate of Belgium may yet 
be ours.— Crittenden Marriott.

The service of a plumber would be 
greatly appreciated in the gymnasium 
as several of the hot water faucets are 
not in working order. They have been 
out of service for some time, so why 
not get on the job and fix up? 



SAVE FOR A HOrtlE! 

We can help you do it.. Your deposit plus 3 per cent, interest 
compounded every six months, will soon enable you to buy a lot. 
Then you can easily borrow more to build the house. It Is not what

Anothei- item in the gymnasium 
might be remedied without much

matter of lights. Would it not be 
very much better for the students if 
two lights were placed above the niir

ing occasion to shave after dark, finds 
it very inconvenient to do so in the 
gym.

THE ADVANTAGES OF 

MODERN FARM LIFE 



Oration on Important Subject of Modem 
^arm Life as Compared With That of 
i ormer Times 



Of all the places where life can be i the long winter nightc his mind goes 
lived to its frees; and fullest where it 'out to the snow clad fields; he iniag- 



can be met in its greatest variety 
thtre is none equal to the open coun- 
try. It is true that the growth of 
large cities and industrial ccntcra, 
along with the slowness of progress 
in the country, has created a prejudice 
against that life. But the farmer is 
coming to hi.s own, and farm life is 
*"'-ing on a new meaning. 

lodern science and invention have 
le. much to revolutionize farm life, 
w and specialized machinery and 
the use of motive power have gone a 
long way toward solving the labor 
problem so that there is no longer any 
excuse for the proverbial drudgery and 
lonesomeness. Agriculture has be- 



ines himself opening thes table door 
and hears in his mind the welcome 
wicker of his horses. 

So much of the best in the world 
seems to have come fragrant out of 
fields, gardens, and hilvsides. So many 
truths spoken by the Master Poet 
come to us, exhaling the odors of open 
country. His stories were so often of 
sowers, husbandmen, herdsmen. Ili.-i 
smiles and illu.stratioiis so often dealt 
with the common and familiar oeauty 
of the fields. 

Nor have these natural charm.s been 
overshadowed oy modern improve- 
ments. Indeed they have been added 
to. All literature is full of nature.^

come a science and schools have beon pictures, so that an educati6u only 



founded every wheic in which it may 
be studied as a science. There is 
boundless opportimity for experiment 
and development. Spraying, seed 
testing, and fertilizing have all be- 
come factors in the great essentia! 
struggle of the farmer to command 
the forces of nature. 

Nor i^ it necessary in these days for 
the country dweller to live uncducat 
or uninterested In what are called 
finer things of life. The hardships 
' ioneering have given place to the 
pleasures of modern conveniences 
Good roads, telephones, and news- 
papers, coming every day by rural post, 
enable the farmer to maintain a close 
touch with the finest things the world 
has \^ offer any man. The automobile 
has broken the prison bars of country 
life and made it possible to travel with 
ease and comfort. But possibly more 
important has been the advance in 
rural education. The country boys ami 
twirls af twenty years ago finished 
their education in the giammar schools 
but today they are crowding into the 
rural high schools and looking for- 
ward to a special training in higher 
schools. Thus we find the practica', 
social and intellectual sides of country 
life have been revolutionized. 

But aside from these there are cer- 
tain inherent charms, which have al- 
ways been found peculiar to a life liv- 
ed in touch with nature. A feeling 
comes to the man, who plants the seed 
in the warm moist earth and sees it 
grow into a strong mature plant, that 
comes to no one else. He learns to 
love his fields and crops; and when 
storms or pests destroy them, his 
heart aches with something more than 
a sense of loss. How fine it is to 
watch the fruit trees blossom in th(> 
spjringtimo, to see the little white 
lambs frisk and play over the green 
pastures. But finest of all, is to see 
and smell the rain in a corn field, af- 
ter weeks' of drought. If a man take, 
part in this way, in all the experiences 
of the year, he comes to have an in- 
describable affection for his land and 
his animals. He finds joy in his lit 
tie kingdom n winter and aummer. In 



makes more real to tho farmer the ex- 
periences of his daily lite. Modern 
science teaches us that the soil is a liv 
ing thing and must be fed the same as 
the human body. This gives the farm- 
er the interesting task of studying hi;^ 
soil and finding what is most needed to 
strengthen it. Research and discovery 
have given a new charm to the con- 
stant waifare.-; with insects and fungi. 
The modern farmer finds time for reo 
reation. He finds more time for local 
and national intercots. 

An argument for country life is not 
complete without some mention of tli; 
home life. . Could one wish for more 
ideal conditions for a home tlian those 
found in modern country communities? 
The average country home of today 
may have the finest up-to-date reading 
matter and the finest, music along 
with numerous other luxuries of the 
city home. In addition there is an at- 
mosphere of health and strength, a 
spirit of independence and satisfac- 
tion, which is found only in country 
homes. It is there that the clean 
manly life is fostered, while the con- 
stant daily comradshii- of parents and 
children, the sharing of tasks and 
pleasures, about the fireside in the 
evening draws them together in the 
bonds of a love, not usually found in 
the home. 

Is it any wonder then, may 1 ask, 
that an ever increasing nmiiber of 
people are going back to the farm; 
thet young men even from the cities 
are crowding into schools of agricul- 
ture and preparing themselves for thai 
life. The farmer is fast becoming th" 
dominant figure in national and inter- 
national affairs. The country' is no 
longer the home of the down trodden 
and uneducated. Agriculture has l)e- 
come a profession and demands a 
training equal to that of any other pro- 
fession. In return it gives more than 
most other lines of activitiy. While 
it may not bring wealth or fame, it 
brings that which is o? greater value— 
a free, happy, healthful life. 



Many of thes tudents attended the 
lecture given in the Masonic Temple 
on Friday evening by Major General 
Clement ,of Sunbury, under the au- 
spices of the Snyder County Red 
Cross. The hall was well filled with 
deeply intereste(lf"people. 

General Clement in a very clear 
and forceful way spoke to the au 
dience on the conditions in France a.s 
he saw them while th;-re under the di- 
rection of the United States Govern- 
ment. His description of the manner 
of fighting and the preciseness of ev- 
eiy detail in tfre greal machine were 
quite interesting. He described trench 
life with all its shortcomings as well 
as the lerribleness of the battles. Iv; 
was privileged to witness several bat 
lies while in France so could tell from 
actual facts what it was like. He clos- 
ed his address with a stirring appeal 
for greater patriotism on the part of 
the people at home and a greater re- 
sponse to the appeals which come to 
us from the different organtzations in- 
terested in the war work. 

An offering wn« t.ike« for tlie local 
Red Cross which was quite liberal.

INTERCOLLEGIATE COMMENT 

Case Tech. wil hold its annual perl 
tournament this week. Rumor has it 
that A. Fish — last yeai-'s aquatic cap 
tain— is thought to have a fine chance 
to assume the splendid trophy which 
will be awarded at the end of the con 
test. 

At Harvard a former French ofiic t 
will be in charge of the recently adop- 
ted wartime sport — "bayonetting." 

Cornell, Columbia and Pennsylvania 
will be the only contestants likely to 
enter the intercollegiate rowing rc- 
gelta to be held on the Hudson next 
June. 

As a result of several messages 
l;om jloover, Bhiffton has decided to 
offer a series of lectures of Food Con- 
servation. 

Because of their inability to seciin^ 
the required finances, the Class uf 
1919, at Lafayette, will be unable to 
publish the class annual. 

Despite the vigorous and determined 
fight put up by thes tudents and facul- 
ty, the chemistry building at the Con- 
necticut Agricultural College wa.^ 
destroyed by fire. 

Official reports affrm that approxi- 
mately fifty per cent, of the college 
students of New P^ngland have enter 
edin to some phase of war work. 

A fee of two dollars is reqtiired of 
every ndividual at Swarthmore who 
takes a make-up examination; no ex 
am may be taken "in absentia." 

Special technical training will be 
given to drafted men this summer af 
the Wisconsin University wheie the 
buildings and equipment have ueeii 
loaned to the Government for the 
purpose. 

By eliminating its vacations, Buck- 
nell will be tnabhd tc close three 
weeks earlier. 



Ladies and Gentlemen: Four min- 
utes to say a few words for Uncle 
Sam! 

Uncle Sam's a chap we are all in 
terested in. In fact, we are a part of 
him. We ilic peoplu— that's Uncle 
Sam. There are 100,000,000 of him 
reaching from the Atlantic to the 
Pacific, from the great Lakis to the 
Gulf of Mexico. He's a nion.siious big 
fellow, mighty in physiqu,. and tho 
slow to anger, valiant in defense of 
liberty and right. 

Uncle Sam stands lorth ;us uiie of 
the great free democracies of thf^ 
world today, in point oi' years the old- 
est democracy in the world. For ou' 
nation, tho yet young, at its beginn- 
ing, as our immortal Lincoln haa 
said: "Wa.s conceived in liberty 
and dedicated to the proposition 
that all men wore created equal." 
And \yo niiKht continuo almost in 
Lincoln's exact words "Now we 
are engaged in a great world war. 
testing whether that nation or any 
nation, so conceived and so dedicated 
can long endure." 

For look at it from any angle we 
will, the supreme issue in the present 
war is seen to be that of autocracy 
against deniocrac.v. As President 
Wilson has finely said: "We must 
make the world -aie for democracy.' 

This war, precipitated a.s we have 
almost forgotten, by a pistol shot fired 
by an eighteen year old school boy, 
that was at first a quarrel between 
Austria and Servia, has finally result- 
ed in this alignment. On the one side 
we have the great free democracies of 
the world, England, I'rance and Ameri- 
ca, and on the other the three great 
autocracies of the world, Germany, 



Austria and Turkey, the latter two 
practically the vassals of Germany. 

For information as to the spirit that 
dominates the German nation today 
I can only refer you to the pamphlet 
"T^onquest and Kultur," to be had for 
the asking from the Committee on 
Public Information at Washington. As 
to the purposes of Germany's ruler, 
let this quotation from him suflice: 
"From childhood I have hern influ- 
enced by five men: Alexander, the 
Grfat; Julius Caesar; Thcodoric II; 
Frederick, the Great, and Napoleon. 
Each dreamed of world empire. They 
failed. I have dreamed of German 
world dominion and my mailed fist 
shall succeed." 

We as Americans believe not only 
that we are fighting for our national 
integrity but that our cause is the 
cause of humanity as well. We be- 
lieve that the destiny of tho race is 
safest not with a German autocracy 
like a mighty colossus astride the 
world, nor with the Bolsheviki fanat- 
ics of Russia, but with the orderly 
and progressive evolution of the great 
free democracies of the world, Eng- 
land, France and America. 

Ladies and genUemen, we have a 
cause worth striving for, a cause 
worth sacrificing for, a cause worth 
fighting for and if nee^d be dy- 
ing for. The splendid words of Col- 
onel Roosevelt, spoken some years ago, 
were never more true than they are 
today: "We here in America hold in 
our hands the hope of the world, the 
fate of the coming years, and shamo 
and disgrace will be ours if in our 
eyes the light of high resolve is dim- 
med, if we trail in the dust tho 
golden hopes of men." 



NO VARSITY BASEBALL 
By action of the Athletic Associa- 
tion last fall it was decided to drop 
all intercollegiate atlihlics at t-usque^ 
banna for thf period of the war. 

This mcari? there will be no baseball 
this spring, lioweve,- tlie athletic 
board Ikis pui chased liaseball jiara- 
phanalia and the various doparimentrf 
and classes of the university will be 
represented on the field by their re- 
spective nine.'^, So l)asebali will not 
be dropped in spitf of the fact that 
there wil be no varsit>' 
Attention will be ^i\en to (he track 
and it is hoped tliat \\r (im arous? 
enough iniei'ifii lo tum- an iiiterclass 
meet. As soon as llie W(\ather pei- 
mits \\ (irk will b'-ain in fixing up tho 
tennis courts and the re is no reason 
why we should not have several first 
class tennis teams. Athletics this 
spring will be on the jump and every 
one will find plenty to do in one of 
thes sports. 

SUMMER SCHOOL 
..Summer Term opens June 24th in- 
stead of June 3rd as previously an- 
nounced. This change was made so 
that students from schools which do 
not close till late can enroll and pre- 
pare for teaching this fall. 



WEIMAR EDITION 

OF LUTHER'S WORKS 

The library of Susqueiianna lias en- 
riched its collection of Lutherana by 
adding 159 volumes of the Weimar Edi- 
tion of Luther's Works. This edition 
has been edited liy able Lutheran 
specialists and is one of the most 
scholarly sets of works ever issued. 

Susquehanna is ready for more ad- 
ditions to her large library and for a 
fireproof modern building in which to 
house and to use them. 

ATTENTION! SUBSCRIBERS! 

Here's a proposition for you. In 
creased co.st of production. War time 
conditions affecting advertisers and al- 
so subscriptions; receipts for the pres- 
ent year running below receipts for 
the same period last year; about one- 
half of the active subscriptions still 
unpaid for the present term and a 
oodly number from last year. This 
means that one-half of the readers of 
the paper will make an increased post- 
age expenditure to remind them of 
their indebtedness. It's only a dollar 
to you but all the dollars together 
mean a great deal to us. Won't you 
do your part? It's up to you,

Why are there twenty-four hours in 
a day? A question philosophers might 
well ponder; yet a question which in 
dividuaLs far less learned must ans- 
wer eveiy day of tht.r lives. 

Why are there twenty-four hours in 
a day? One student tells us— not 
with his lips however — "That I may 
sleep ten hours and spend the next 
four waking up." Another, "That I 
may spend one hour at the bakery, 
four at cards, and halt a dozen loafing 
and talking about nothing." And still 
another, "That I may linger for ten 
minutes between each class and a 
whole hour every evening, in sweet 
communion with the dearest girl in 
the world." And another, "That I may 
crowd into every minute as much 
hard work as it can contain." Do any 
of these persons deserve to be pre- 
sented every morning with a new day 
worth twenty-four hours? 

Twenty-four hours. Eight are for 
sleep, as most of us agree. But how 
divide the other sixteen? We — strange 
fact— are sent to colle"ge to work; but 
because we are all born lazy let us as- 
sume a very liberal playtime allow- 
ance. Eight hours for meals and 
recreation, we will say, and eight for 
work. "That's ea.sy," you may boast, 
"yesterday I spent six hours in clas- 
ses and two hours studying." Very 
good. But weren't you fifteen minutes 
late for your eight o'clock class? 
And didn't you spend half your his- 
tory period writing notes to a certain 
young lady, and the best part of your 
English hour dreaming with your eyes 
fixed on the blue sky outside? 
Spring fever Too bad. And, oh, by 
the way, did you include in your six 
hours class work the time you spent 
carving initials on the Math-room 
table? 

Next a bright-eyed co-ed tells us. In 
confidence, that she spent four hour.s 
Studying and five hours in classes 
We congratulate her, and inquire what 
Bhe studied in her four hours. Imagine 
our surprise when we discover that hf i' 
Btudy time had been "filled" with two 
hours worth of work, ten cents worth 
of candy and nothing's worth of chat- 
ter. 

Oh, yes, we are too critical. We 
agree perfectly. But we honestly 
want to discover wht;ther there rhould 
be twenty four hours in a college day. 
Here comes a girl with a worried 
look. Let's ask her. Inquiry proves 
that she "goes In for everything," 
works at one task or another from 8 
a.m. to 10; no p.m., except when she 
"just steals time for a walk down 
town." She wishes there were thirty- 
Bix hours in a day. Yet when we 



study her acconiplisliimnts we find 
that tho always wprking she is "rush- 
ed to death" with about eight hours' 
real work. It appears that we rnigii; 
all use better a shorter day. 

The report for the iise of play houi-i 
is evoh worst , Over-eating, gossip, 
fitful ejercise, and sheer idleness seer^ 
to be favorite diversions. And then 
there is endless conversation with the 
same people on the same subjects un- 
til it is small wondei that our thot.s 
move in circles. Reading is absent anrl 
thinking is far from us. Such occu- 
pations are for those who need nor 
work as hard as we. 

Once we had a vision In it, we saw 
an up-to-date college man who applied 
the laws of modern business efficiency 
to his life.. Every night, he planned 
his work for the next day. He wa.-:. 
never late, he never forgot, and he 
usually prepared his lessons. Yet ho 
had time for athletics, for fun, for 
reading and for a mod( rate amount oi 
"social life." College liked him, and 
he liked college. 

But this was all a dream. As for 
us, 'twere better tliat the day had only 
eighteen hours. — Ursinus Weekly. 



THE COLLELGE WIDOW 

To inarry, or not to marry, — that is 
the question: 

Whether 'tis nobler in th». minds of 
Profs, to be a college widow. 

Or to link arms with a youthful 
swain, 

And by wooing, marry him? To wed, 
— to love — 

No more; and by loving to stiy we 
end 

The heart-aches and the thousand 
other things. 

That co-eds fain would do,— 'tis a 
combination, 

Devoutly to be wished. To wed,— 
to love; — 

To live! Perchance to rule! — ay, 
there's the rub; 

For in that life of Jove what grief 
may come, 

V\'hen we have shufliled off this sin 
gle state. 

Must give us pause: There's the 
salient trait that brings Reno to a 
lover's life; 

For who would hark the words of 
suitors. 

The Olympic Show, the treat across 
the street. 

The lure of campus walks, the mill- 
stone talk.s, 

The insolence of Daily's 7:30 law. 

To "read or write the "billet-doux," 
When she herself, could her own life j 
live with education true? 

Who'd these burdens bear 

To grind and sweat in single bliss. 

But that .the dread of Haymen's 
aftermath 

That abyssmal depth of chaos and 
d(>spair 

In our vision, — changes our decision, 
And makes us rathei* bear those ills 
we have 

Than go to others of uncertainty? 

Thus professors mould the lives of 
all; 

And thus the thought of our deter- 
mination 

Is sickled o'er with that of Fancy 
Fern ; 

And our great thots of married bliss. 
With this regard soon turn away, 

And lead to indecision. — Soft you 

Now! The hour is up. — T 1.

Dogtown. 



Y. M. C. A. 

Kapp was leader of the Y. M. C. A. 
meeting last Tuesday evening. I'he 
speaker of the evening was Rev. 
Bowers, of Sunbury. in the beginning 
of his address he reminisced some- 
what about the Y. M. C. A. in his col 
lege days at Wittenburg, telling how 
the men who attended the Y. M. C. A. 
meetings are the men who are doing 
the work of the kingdom today. Then 
as appropriate to the Lenten season 
he spoke about Pet^r and using for 
the basis for his talk Matt. 26:58: 
"And Peter followed him afar." Rev. 
Bowers then eloquently and vividly 
described the events in the garden cf 
Gethsemane, the arrest. Peter's hasty 
action, Christ's miraclo of healing the 
severed ear, the procession over th-3 
brook Kedron and up to Pilate's 
house with Peter following afar. The 
description was so real that the au- 
dience was fascinated and moved. 
The speaker then told that Peter was 
not the unselfish, selfsacriflciog man 
that he was later. Many of us like 
Peter are following afar. We are not 
close to the Master. Altho Peter fol- 
lowed afar, yet he followed. He fol- 
lowed poorly and secretly but he fol- 
lowed. And Peter got there, even 
tho he first denied his Master. He 
became the leader of the disciples 
and accomplished much good and 
tradition tells us that Nero had him 
crucified head downward. In closing 
the speaker again used his marveloui? 
descriptive power in portraying the 
scene of Christ and Peter by the sea 
closing with Peter's statement "Thou 
k newest that 1 love Thee." 

The meeting was then turned over 
to the president who conducted the 
annual election of officers. The elec- 
tion resulted as follows: Pres., W. D. 
Allbeck; Vice-Pres., R. F. Auman; 
Hec, M. C. Gortner; Treas., M. C 
Cole; Monitor, A. Bohner. These new 
ofBcers will be installed at the next 
meeting to serve for one year. We 
wish them great success in their ad- 
ministration. 



Diego to visit tho Aviation Camp or 
Training School, Camp Kearney, PJxpo- 
sition Grounds and Buildings, which 
was alive with soldier.^ and cadets, 
.ship building industries, canning fac- 
tories, parks, public buildings and 
many other places of interest. 

Our ne.x't trip was to Van Bernardi- 
no to attend the orange show which is 
held annually and visited 'by people 
from all parts of the world. This was 
beyond description, li was the great- 
est exhibition of fruits and other pro- 
ducts or Calit'ornia ever witnessed in 
this country. From there we went to 
Riverside to visit the Mission Inn and 
the Indian School. We took a boat at 
Van Pedro and went thirty miles out 
on the Pacific Ocean. This Island is 
twenty-two miles long and seven and '- 
half miles wide. While tl^re we went 
out on gfass bottom boats and viewed 
the submarine gardenb. the most beau- 
tiful gardens under the sea in the 
world, from 30 to 80 feet under the 
surface. After returnmg from this 
trip we visited the ostrich farm, the 
alligator farms, the oil fields, old man 
sions and many places of interest, 
have gathered many nice views to 
show you when I return home. 

We leave for Mexico tomorrow and 
will follow the Southeiu Pacific route 
to Washington, D.C. 

With be.st wishes for all I remain. 
Yours verj* truly, 

WM. T. IIORTON. 



THE BIGGEST FOOD THING 

NOW— PRODUCTION 



MR. HORTON'S LETTER 
Los Angeles, March 3, 1918. 
Dear Friends: 
After writing you we went to San 



Food Administration is not onf 
thing, but three— Conservation, Con- 
trol, and Production. From month to 
mouth, according to the fortunes of 
war, and the needs of our Allies, our 
soldiers and ourselves, we save food 
at our tables and handle it at reason- 
able profits as business men, or plant 
it as farmers and gardeners. 

Now is the time to be busy with 
your second year war garden. Last, 
year's war gardens were a magnificent 
success— more than 3,000,000 acres cf 
back-yard and suburb lots were plant- 
ed, yielding $350,000,000 worth of 
fresh products, and a billion quarts of 
home-canned and home-dried stuff. 

This year's war gardens must be big- 
ger and better, in acreage and or- 
Iganization. Order your seeds now, 
and help the seed men with the conn- 
ing spring rush. Order your fertilizer 
now, and your lime, and help the rail- 
roads. Buy your garden tools imme- 
diately, and help the hardware man. 
Arrange for spring plowing, not only 
for yourself, but in co-operation with 
your neighbors. Plan your garden st 
that everything will be planted in 
rows, easily cultivated with a wheel 
hoe. Also plan for double cropping 
wherever possible — follow your peas 
and beans with turnips and cabbage. 
Plant a good variety and can or dry 
the surplus. 

War gardens in Germany have beer 
better every year — that shows what 
experience and organization will do. 
We must not let the Germans beat us 
here, any more tlian on the Western 
Front. War Gardens should continue 
long after peace returns, because they 
represent economic betterment of tho 
Nation. Plant this year's garden as 
tho for a ten year war, thus benefit- 
ting by the personal efficiency that war 
brings. — James H. Collins.

JOTS AND BLOTS FROM 
THE COLLEGE CflMPyS 



We are very glad to note that we 
at last have a rope on our flag polo. 
There will now be no excuse for not 
floating the stars and stripes, and al 
so our service flag. We wish to thank 
Shobert, who so valiantly climbed the 
pole Saturday afternoon. This was 
quite a stunt, and he certainly liad a 
large audience watching him. 



Again we wish to caution the .stu- 
dents about walking on the grass and 
tennis courts. This is the time of the 
year when the ground is rather soft 
and footprints are very noticeable. If 
we watch this matter a little more 
closely now, our campus will be much 
nicer a little later on. 



The fellows are now getting the'base 
ball fever, Saturday afternoon quite 
a number of the fellows could be seen 
down on the athletic field twirling the 
ball. Keep up the good work, for we 
are anxious for some varsity baseball 
this spring. 



We are now on our regular spring 
term schedule. It turely seemed 
queer to continue school work with- 
out a little vacation between the terms, 
but we are all glad of it, for it means 
our finishing up so much earlier. 



The seniors are very busy putting 
tlie finishing touches on their clas-- 
play. It is sure to be ver>' good and 
veiy funny. Everyone should make 
it a point to see the play tonight. 
Don't forget the time, 8:15 p.m.

AN EMIGRANT'S IMPRESSION 

OF THE STATUE OF LIBERTY 

Travelers entering New Yoik harboi, 
If they enter in the night — 
See the statue of a woman, 
Holding liigh a brilliant light. 

To the world this mighty Goddess, 
Holding high this brilliant torch. 
Symbolizes truth and Ireedom, 
For which countless heroes fought. 

For the sand and friendless exile. 
Entering New York's cheerless bay. 
In that light is joy and friendship, 
Charms which drive sad thoughts 
away. 

Tell me sad oppressed wanderer. 
Ho you feel its mighty charm? 
If not, let the ocean zephers, 
Inoculate you with that balm. 

For before you is a country. 
Free from despots cruel arm. 
Wherein dwelleth many nations, 
Enjoying this celestial charm. 

— G. D. C.

is what happens in the Senior play.

GUNS TO BE SECURED FOR USE | 
IN STUDENT MILITARY DRILL 





Money Secured for the Purchase of Prac- 
tise Cutis for Students in Military Drill— 
Selinsgrove People Assisted 

Susquehanna's student body again i sired. Dr. Aikens further encouraged 



unmistakably d'r .lonstrated their pat- 
riotism and desire tor some military 
training in a meeting last Tuesday af- 
ternoon in Seibert Hail. The purpose 
^ the meeting was to discuss means 
of securing arms for the local military 
company which has been in existence 
since the faculty has made this train- 
ing a part of the curriculum. The 
volunteer company of Iftst spring and 
the drill company this winter were 
much handicapped by the lack of arm:? 
to drill with and it was suggested that 
something be done to secure them. It 
was for thiff purpose' that Captain 
Weaver requested a meeting of the 
male student body. Sergeant Hark- 
ins had charge of the meeting and 



the company and complimented them 
on their progress and interest. Cap- 
tain Weaver inaugurated some new 
formations in both open and closed 
order and held a stiff drill. 

Later he appointed a committee for 
the purpose of canvassing the business 
men and public spirited citizens of the 
town for further funds. This commit- 
tee was composed of Messrs. Wm. 
Schnuie, Geo. Schoch and Bay Bulick, 
from the town, and Lutton, Shoaf and 
Allbeck, from the imiversity. These 
men thoroughly canvassed the busi- 
ness section of the town and met with 
a hearty respo'nse from all public 
sf)irited citizens who are congnisant 
of the need of military training and

presented the matter. He showed the the hindrance the lack of arma is. 



impracticability and impossibility of 
obtaining Winchester rifles both be- 
cause of the prohibitive cost and thp 
great demand for them by the govern- 
ment at the present time. He showed 
a betber plan of buying wooden rifles 
shaped exactly in imitation of the 
Springfield rifle and having a stock 
and swlvei'. They are the kind Si 
arms many of the training camps and 
collegiate military companies use and 
are approved by the government for 
drilling purposes. A rifle costs only 
one dollar and it was thought that 
sufflcient money could be raised to 
equip th« company. Accordingly sub- 
scriptiont' and money were taken from 
among the students to buy the rifles 
which will be the property of the in- 
stitution and may serve to tr^in many 
future undergraduate students. En- 
thusiasm moved the boys to be gener- 
ous and when the meeting closed Sec- 
retary Shoaf reported over thirty dol- 
lars subscribed. Captain Weaver ex- 
pressed his gratitude at the hearty re- 
sponse of the company and further 
stirred up the spirit of the body. On 
Wednesday evening at drill the matter 



They scarcely needed to be reminded 
that the boys who were in the com- 
pany last spring and then enlisted in 
the national army found the little be- 
ginning of training they received on 
Susquehanna's athLtic field very val- 
uable and save them an advantage 
over many of their fellow soldiers. 
Hence the townspeople, ever loyal to 
the university and interested in the 
welfare of the students generously 
contributed until the amount subscrib- 
ed has reached almost a hundred dol- 
lai:s. ' Reports from all members of 
the committee are not available nor 
has all the luoney been paid but ft is 
believed that the total will exceed the 
mark. Much interest and spirit has 
been shown and the committee is de- 
termined that the total shall go over 
the top. In all probability the money 
will all be collected and the order sent 
before bhis goes to press. The stu- 
dent body deserve much praise and 
they are truly grateful to their friends 
in town for their splendid response to 
the request for funds to secure the 
guns which we feel sure will soon ar- 
rive. Thus Susquehanna is taking her

not been present at the meeting. 



More money was subscribed until with 
u the aid of President Aikens and Dr. 
f Houtz the subscriptions had reached 

fifty dollars, one half of the sum de- 



try in preparing her undergraduate^ 
students for the military service that 
they may be compelled to render their 
nation after graduation. 



.. "HOW LONG, OH CATALINE! .. 

How long would an American-Ger- 
man, thinking and talking Pro-Ameri- 
canism, be tolerated in Berlin? 

How long would a German, think- 
ing and talking anti-Austrianism, he 
tolerated in Munich? 

If you who read this were in Ger- 
many today, would you exped to be 
allowed to talk against Germany sim- 
ply because you were an American? 
Would you not be profoundly grate- 
ful to be permitted to remain alnve 
and keep your mouth shut? 

If America is not united for the war, 
it is, at leastf to be hoped that from 
now on no American will talk sedition. 

There are two possible sorts of hu- 
man beings in Ameirca. today — foreig- 
ners and citizens. Of these' it will be 
the duty of citizens to be loyal; forei- 
gners will be taken care of as they de- 
serve, according to their actioi)s. A 
third variety of human being in Ameri- 
ca, an impossible sort, citizen and jjis- 
loyal. Tn time of war such a creature 
is as unimaginable as an athistic Chris- 
tian. It cannot be imagined in time of 
war, how any bc^ng can be at onct; 
citizen and disloyal. 

Any German in Germany, talking 
dislayalty to Germany, would be plac- 
ed against a wall and shot. If you 
can't talk for America, keep your fool 
mouth shut. 



"LET US HAVE PEACE" 

So spoke the master militarist -of 
America three and fifty years ago. So 
say we after viewing the desolation of 
three and a half years of the worst 
warfare the earth has ever known. 
Let us have peace — just as soon as 
the broken sword of Prussianism is 
tendered in unconditional surrender. 
Detesting war, we are forced to be- 
lieve in a war which became neces- 
tary to regain peace for the world. 
Respecting peace, we protest against 
a pseudopeace which the enemies of 
mankind may use as a preparation for 
renewed war. 

If Might is God and Schrecklichkeit 
is its Prophet, then Prussianism is 
justified. Welcome peace and wel 
come the shackles which shall bind 
the world. But if such a standard is 
wrong, then Germany is wrong and 
we dare not submit or quit until her 
poAver is no longer a menace. Let us 
have peace, hut let it be peace between 
pe(n's. The only peer of democracy is 
democracy. When Prust^ianism flou<- 
ed its own royal bonded word as a 
"scrap of paper" it forever abjured all 
right to enter into anot+ier treaty with 
self respecting peoples. When Pru.s 
sianism speaks no\k', no matter how 
fair the words, neither its friends nor 
its enemie* believe. P does not even 
believe itself. Pnisisan speech is a 
mere means of disguising its purpose. 
How can there be a parley between 
Unfaith on its part f,nd Unbelief on 
ours? 

Prussianism's only »bsolution Is 
restitution. Its only symbol must be 
"Surrender." Either surrended to the 
forces of the world which it has out- 
raged or surrended to its subject 
peoples which it has deceived. 



What was undoubtedly the funniest 
play ever staged in Selins,L;i()\ c was 
put on last Tuesday night by the 
Senior class of the University. It was 
a continuous laugh from first to last. 
Every character played as a profes- 
sional and there were no hitches. 
Everything was a success. 

Professor Keener played tin/ role of 
Captain Racket, a lawyer when he had 
nothing else to do, and who was a 
notorious prevaricator but at last had 
to confess to his wife. He had been 
sent by his uncle to sic a gii'l whom 
his uncle had proposi'd to hut the 
captain told the uncle that the girl 
was pot handsome so that the uncle 
went to Japan. Racket then inarried 
the girl himself. This was allright till 
the Uncle, Paul Faust, returned and 
then the trouble etarted. The Rack- 
ets at this time were attending a 
house party at the home gf Timothy 
Tolman, Selin 1). Ulrich, whose wife, 
Florence Lubold, had an awful tem- 
per and made poor Tim's lile miser- 
able. After Uncle Obadiah's arrival 
the captain sent his wife Clarice to 
her father. P. P. Williamson, house 
witli Tim. Tim goes to a cafe and 
l)ecomos intoxicat(>d, returning the 
following morning. Then the trouble 
started. Mrs. Tolman starts on Tim 
about returning late and about the 
time he had the matter patched up the 
waiter from the cafe, Russel Auman, 
came in with a bill for damages which 
started a new row. This brought 
Captain Racket into the affair and 
caused a difference between him and 
Clarice. Trouble continues to pile up 
for Captain Racket till the last act 
when he was forced to confess hi.^ 
sins, is forgiven by his wife, the same 
thing accurs for the Tolman's, uncle 



The People of Germany can again obadiah is reconciled to his loss, and 
rise to the height of credibility in the K^ty the maid, Stella Schadel, plays 



MORE THAN A MILLION 

.\Uho. there never should have been 
any question, Lutherans have prover 
themselves loyal Americans. They 
have nobly pledged to care for our 
165,000 Lutheran boys in the Army and 
Navy so that our Church may go with 
the boys in this world struggle wher 
ever they may be. The National Luth 
eran Commission asked the Churoii to 
raise $750,0(M) for one year's work and 
they most nobly responded by making 
It over a million. The chairi-ffan of the 
Executive Committee of the Luther 
League, Hon. E. P. Eilert, Is the 
treasurer of the Cdmmission and was 
also the chairman of the National Fi- 
nance Committee In this campaign. 



At anv rate we can't help It. 



COLOR STAND WANTED 

Now that the matter of guns for the 
military drill has been provided for 
there is one more thing needed. That 
is a stand of colors. This consists of 
a United States flag and a Susquehan- 
na flag, ff there is any reader who 
might be interested in this matter he 
can secure further information by" 
writing to Captain Weaver or to The 
Susquehanna. We will gladly give any 
information that may be desired. 



EASTER GREETINGS 

The Susquehanna wishes to extend 
to all its readers a happy Eastei 
season. 



Don'tHry to look for opportunity and 
dodge work at the same time.

A WORD TO THE WISE 

The young man and tlie girl weic 
standing outside the front door, hav 
ing a final chat after his evening call. 
He was leaning against the door post, 
talking in low tones. Presently tli-' 
young lady looki-d ;i round to dis- 
cover her father in the doorway, dad 
in a dressing gown. 

"Why, father, what in the world is 
the matter?" she Inquired. 

"John," said the father, addressing 
himself to the young man, "you know I 



a joke on the uncle. The play ends 
with everyone happy. The part of 
Claiice was ably plajed by Helen 
Fetterolf. 

The music was furnished by an or- 
chestra from the school which was 
well liked. Several times during the 
play the guests at the huusi' party 
sang selections. These added greatly 
to the show. 

The play was a marked success and 
the demand for it to l"' k [it-ated has 
induced the class to put it on again. 
The date for this has not b«en fixed 
as yet but it will be either April 9th 
or IHlh.

COLLEGE ADVERTISING 

Why is it that soine colleges arc ad- 
vancing with tremendous strides, 
while others are standing still or los- 
ing ground? There are a good many 
factors entering into the question, but 



in touch with the pastors in 11 
assigned to him. I\Iake him r. . , ..- 
bio for tlio fhoro v.orking of that field. 
Let the diiTi icn: ones stir up a 1 > ;;'. <>y 
rivalry bei ween the different s^ nod.-;. 

Ah, but ■■;i.>..-; ih" ultra-con?« t v;!t >, r, 
"What's til.' i:. "? We'll just spend a 
lot of niont y and have nolliing to shov, 
for it. Thai, isn't the way we used to 
do." And so the ciiorus runs. 0! 
coui-;u' if everything is moving alons; 
smoothly and successfully, there isn'' 
any need tor the adoption of a nvv 
policy. No baseball manager breaks 
up a winning combination, even tho he 
has better individual players sitting 
on the bench. But what if the team 
starts losing? Then what does he do? 
If he is an intelligent manager, he 
tries out combinations and continues 
doing so till he starts his team climb- 
ing. The same principle will apply to 
college management. There are cer 
tain men on the Susquehanna faculty 
who could be used to splendid advant- 
age, and who would do it for the sake 
of the love they have for the school. 
But these men cannot be expected to 
give their summer vacations without 
being well paid for their time and ef- 
fort. Let the board put an intelligent 
proposition up to these men, give them 
time to formulate a well arranged 
method of attack, and there is no 
question about the result of the drive. 

Another factor in advertising a 



it is the purpose of this short article 

to suggest but one reason. Some col- ' ^^chool is the quality of the material 

leges have come to rea'ize what every 



wide-awake business man realizes — 
that judicious advertising pays; other 
schools seem to be unconscious of this 
advantage. 

First let us see what is meant by 
judicious advertising. All small col- 
leges are limited in their financial re- 
Bources. Every dollar expended nmst 
have a f^'"' '' 'nee of yielding an ade- 
<)u: Uidicious advertising is 

n<\\' eh takes this possibil- 

i' at ion. It is advertising 

which is not falsely economical. It 
does not hold too tightly the possessed 
dollar when there is an intelligent 
possibility of expending it to good ad- 
vantage. 

But, you say. "How do(\s this affect 
Susquehanna?" H is the belief of tho 
writer thai il \ 1 1 y closely touches litr. 
Have tho^i' in charge of the school any 
intelligent scheme of advertising in 
mind? Has there been any concen- 
trated eliorl during the pat,t few years 
to get till' ;fiiool before the public"' 
True, t'.Mi 1; i.\c been scattered ef- 
forts, but such efforts seldom I'lin.g 



that goes out in the various college 
publications. We are sorry to say 
tiiat The Susquehanna is not quite as 
good as in former years but this can 
be attributed to the scarcity of news 
caused by the lessening of activities 
due to the war. There is always room 
for improvement. This publication 
can be made to serve a greater need. 
Let the school get back of it with more 
vim and vigor. It ought to bring more 
to the front the life of the Alumni. 
This i.s impossible without a greater 
cooperation on the part of the Alumni. 
The Alumni of Susquehanna are 
loyal; they have the mterests of the 
scliool at heart, and will do anything 
within their power to increase the ca- ' 
pacity and influence of the school. But, 
out from the school, there are some 
things which must originate in the 
school itself. And one of these things 
is the inauguration of a live advertis- 
ing carapai,gn; They can do much to- 
ward aiding such a campaign when 
once set in motion, and will do this. 
They can offer suggestions born out 
of years of experience, but they cannt 



successful results. Has the ni.uiuge- ! compel the management to put such 



ment of the school ever plnnncu a 
wide-awake, cunstruclive caisu-il^ii? 

Here is a suggestion— a scheme 
which ha.s proven successful in other 
places— appoint some live student who 
has news and literary ability as Pub- 
licity Man. Let it be his bu.siness to 
.see that reports of unusual coUepit 
happenings pet into the Philadelphia 
and Pittsburgh jiapers. Let him or- 
ganize a I'n ss Club that will send 
weekly bUrs to papeis in m iKhbor- 
ing couutii , 1 specially 'o those parts 
fro^i which the school draws stiuh iits. 
Make him responsible for this eml of 
Fchool advertising. Pay him suffi- 
ciently Will to justify his pultin.g into 
the effort the best that he has. If the 
Bolection be wisely made the leturns 
from this effort ought to consiiiuto a 
good investment to the school. 

Then, what of summer advnti.siiig"' 
Has the school any definitely outlined 
way of handling the problem? Erratic 
and spasmodic efforts cannot In- ( \ 
pected to produce satisfactory results. 
Would it not iiay the Board to send out 
several of the members of the faculty 
during the summer vacation, one to 
each of the different synods. Pay him 
for his time and efforts. Let him get 



suggestions to the test. Undoubtedly 
we need some new methods of getting 
llni. public in touch with the excellent 
advantages which the school is oHer- 
ing. 



SENIORS LEAD WITH 

HIGHEST GRADES 
A recent report of the Registrar of 
Uipon college shows that the average 
grade of the students as a whole is 83. 
The Seniors lead with an average of 87 
and the other classes follow in regular 
order.

'can make good out f evil. Man tries 
to rule and man makes the mistakes 
and does the evil in his own conci>it 
and folislmoss byut God overrules all, 
An evidence of this in the present war 
is that certain religious facts hav<' 
been brought into prominence. The 
first is the fact of religious conscious- 
ness. Men are talking about religion 
more than they used to. The second 
is the fact of personal responsibility. 
The third is the principle of spirit of 
sacrifice. Thus we see that the war 
has already done some good. 

After this excellent address Presi- 
dent Shoaf took charge and after mak- 
ing a farewell speech installed the 
new officers. President-elect Allbeck 
made a short speech acknowledging 
the honor and responsibility of his of- 
fice and asking for the hearty coopera- 
tion f the entire student body.

apreciation to all those who assisted

Y. M. C. A, 

The smallest and yet one of the most 
interesting meetings of the Y. M. C. A. 
was held last Tuesday evening in the 
V. M. C. A, rooms. Swanger led the 
devotional exercises and introduced 
ihe speaker of the evening. Dr. Hayes, 
(if Middleburg. Dr. Hayes in his in- 



The Writer's Monthly, a valuable 
journal for all who write, makes the 
following comment on the value of ex- 
changes: 

"You have a dollar, i have a dollar. 
We swap. Now you have my dollar 
and I have yours. We are no better 
off. 

"You have an idea. I have an idea. 
We swap. Now you have two ideas 
and 1 have two ideas. 

"That's the difference." 



WE MUST PLEDGE ALL WE HAVE 

All our strength and all our resour- 
ces are pledged to win the War. 

All that wt> have we are ready un- 
grudgingly to give, and without the 
thought of material gain. President 
Wilson has said that America wants 
nothing for herselt in the War that she 
docs not want other nations to enjoy. 
To this sentiment the voice of our peo- 
ple has echoed overwhelming appro 
val, giving evidence of a spiritual awa- 
kening that is purifying the life of 
the nation. It is the expression of 
the American idea, liberty founded in 



rroduction declared that all Y. M. C. A. 

members may and should be proud of Justice, and soon to be made real to 

Ihe fact that they are identified with jail peoples. 



Huch a noble organization. When war 
was declared the government had a 
new problem to solve— the problem of 
sustaining the morale of the army. 
^The consti!uant chaplaincy of the 
I |.my was entirely insufficient. In con- 
sequence President Wilson asked Hon. 
•lohn R. Mott to head fTio Y. M. C. A. 
^var work. The Y. M. C. A. was the 
only organization that could in any 
way do the work and Mr. Mott accept- 
■d the job. The Y. M. C. A. organiza- 
lion was shifted to a war basis and 
Ihe public was asked for thirty-five 
million dollars. The publice xpressed 
their confidence by donating fifty mil- 
lion. This was one of the most slgni- 
ficent evidences of the supreme con- 
ndence of the public mind In the plans 
of the Y. M. C. A. that could possibly 
liave bene shown. Surely the Y. M. C. 
A. is a great organization. War is the 
great subject of public discussion at 
I he present time. Altho the war seems 
terrible and anything else than the 
work of Providence yet we know that 
God always overrules the folly of men 
to His glory. He is the only one who 



The spirit of willing .sacrifice for the 
sake of an adea which is emphasized 
by America will exalt the purposes of 
the War, and when peace comes it will 
be a peace to bring happiness to the 
peoples of all nations in a freer, more 
ioyous and more abundant lite. 



BONUS SYSTEM AWARDS 

CREDIT FOR EXCELLENCY 

A bonus system, whereby students 
can automatically receive extra credits 
for excellency in scholarship, has been 
adopted at the University of Nevada. 
Bonuses are given on the following 
basis: For every grade above 90 pe"- 
cent he will receive a bonus of five 
per cent of the number of hours. If 
a student is taking a three-year course 
and attains a grade of 90 he will be 
granted 15 per cent credits more than 
the three hours and will total 3.45 
hours in the course. If he mawes 85 
he will get five per cent more, or 3.15 
hours. In this way a student taking 
only 15 hours of work and getting an 
average of 90 In all his work will re- 
ceive credit for 17.25 hours.

If you have not already attended to

name on the decks you occupy in the 
classrooms, if someone has kindly rc- 
1 1 served a space for you. It's a good 
I way of practicing self-control, and 
helps to advertise the fact that you 
are attending the institution, other- 
wise people might not know it. It 
shows that you are industrious be- 
cause you are able to attend to a lec- 
ture, taken otes, and carve your name 
or perhaps a rarricature at the same 
time. Besides this, it shows that you 
are considtraic of others because by 
carving and marking up the desks it 
becomes necessary for the carpenters 
to plane and vaanish the desks, thus 
affording them employment during the 
summer months while otherwise they 
might be idle(?)

OR. BAUSLIN PAYS 
VISIT TO SCHOOL 



GENERAL SECRETARY OF BOARD 
OF EDUCATION GAVE TWO STIR- 
LING TALKS TO STUDENTS 



Dr. Chas. S. Bauslin, general secre- 
tary of the Board of Education of the 
Lutheran Church of the United States 

paid his annual and pleasant visit to 
Susquehanna no Thursday. On that 
morning the chapei service was post 
poned to eleven o'clock to accommo- 
date Dr. Bauslin who was not able to 
be present before that time. He had 
been scheduled tp arrive on March 12, 
but on account of a serious sickness 
was delayed two week:; and is still un- 
der the doctor's care^nd accordingly 
was compelled to make his visit short 
and return to llarrisburj; the fsame day. 
The students were all glad to receive 
him, especially those of the upper clas- 
ses who had enjoyed former visits 
from him. And they were all glad to 
lay aside their work and hear Dr. 
Bauslin address them on the subject 
"Putting the Spurt into Expert" which 
was in brief as follows: * 

He' prefaced his address by apolo- 
gies for his condition and his tardiness 
due to causes over which he had no 
controll and even yet was not in prime 
condiWon. He matie the Scriptural 
basis of the remarks the statement of 
St. Paul: "Thus one thing I do." Paul, 
as one born out of due season, be- 
came the greatest missionary and 
changed the religion of Europe. He 
went about nrpnoMrf "-d supported 
.. , ad" ' of tentmak- 
...Ihei" u ching or at 

■nakinr la y "This one 

thing I do." He had a determination 
and^ purpose and Paul succeeded. 
Success in every man's life depends 
on the presence or absence of a con- 
trolling pu)pose. The bulldog has the 
■determination of his purpose and must 
be pried loose with a crowbar but the 
mongrel is easily shaken loose. A 
program is necessary to every man's 
life. Get a program and then build 
well and hard. A bird had built a 
nest in some l)ushes and there hatched 
her young but in a few days the little 
birds were devoured by a snake or 
other bird enemy. The mother bird 
had built too low. The program must 
be worked. Every man has a bent and 
usually only one. Few people are real- 
ly versatile. More are Jack of all 
trades and master of none. Therefore 
be what you should be and follow your 
bent. Decide what that is. Don't 
drift into your life's work. Prepara- 
tion is necessary for the success of the 
program. Many young people are at- 
tracted by the lure of money and leave 
school to work for some monetary re- 
turn. But mere money making is an 
unworthy ideal. It takes only one 
hour to learn to shovel. To put the 
spurt into expert put pep into your 
work. Use your head as you work and 
have lots of ginger. It takes hard 
work and most youths are unwilling 
to start at the bottom and work up but 
try to take a short cut. To put the 
•purt into expert you must put pep 
into your work. And you must have 
the character to back up the rep.

REV. SAMUEL G. SHANNON 

Rev. Samuel G. Shannon passed from 
this life at his hon^e in Norwood on 
Tuesday, March 19th at the age of 
79' years. 

Rev. Shannon was born in 1839 in 
Centre County, where he received his 
early education and followed his trade 
as a carpenter. Later he entered Mis- 
sionary Institute, where he graduated 
in both Classical Cour.se. and Theology 
in 1870. 

Whilein school he served as field 
secretary for Missionary Institute and 
after graduation went to Milroy, where 
heserved for 10 years as pastor of th»^ 
Lutheran church. From Milroy he 
came tp Trinity church, where he serv- 
ed for a number of years, after which 
he was the pastor at Watsontown, 
(Where he organized the first Christian 
Endeavor Society in J-en'nsylvania, at 
Sunbury. where he built the present 
Zion church, and finished his long 
career in the ministry at Bethany 
church, Philadelphia, during which 
pastorate he also served as president 
of the Pennsylvania State Sabbath 
School Association. 

In 1900 he retired from active serv- 
ice and took up his residence at Nor- 
wood, where he became postmaster at 
the beginning of the Democratic ad- 
ministration and held that office till 
till' time of his death. 

Rev. Shannon is survived by three 
sons: George H. Shannon, Chief Bur- 
gess of Watsontown; J. F. Shannon 
of Norwood, and Rev, J. W. Shannon, 
D. D., of Mt. Union, and three daugh 
ters: Mrs. 1. G. VanValzob, of Spring- 
field, Oregon; Mrs. Bert Buys, of 
Pittsburgh, and Mrs. Margaret Roak, 
of Norwood. 



Since the presentation of Captain 
Racket by the Senior Class March 
19th there have been numerous re- 
quests from those who saw it as well 
as many who were unable to see it 
that night that the class should repeat 
it. This the class has decided to do 
and the date has been set for Tues- 
day April 16th. 

New choruses will be introduced so 
that the play will not be entirely the 
same as before and those who saw it 
before will be glad to see-' it again. I 
The sentiment of everyone whcr was 
present before was that Captain Rack- 
et was the funniest play ever staged 
in Selinsgrove. They all said that 
they laughed more that night than 
they ever laughed in the same time 
in their lives. 

The price this time will be the same 
as before, 2,')C for general admission 
and 35c for reserved seats. General 
admission tickets are being sold by 
members of the class. Reserved seats 
are being sold at Bulick's Clothing 
Store. If you buy a general admission 
ticket from some member of the class 
you can exchange it for a reserved 
seat by paying the ten eents additional. 
Have your seats reserved early as the 
outlook is such that we expect all seats 
to be taken in a short time. Now is 
your opportunity to see this wonderful 
play. 

(Continued from preceding Column) 
That same year he became commercial 
instructor in the Pittsburgh High 
School, later the Fifth Avenue High 
School. For the past ?5 years he has 
resided in Knoxvillc and for 27 years 
has been in the Borough council. He 
was a member of Christ Lutheran 
church and was a life member of 
Dallas Lodge No. HOS F. & A. M. He 
leaves a widow, one daughter and two 
sons. 



^^';^l America Has Decided to Help Gain Peace 
of Europe and Mu^ Help Europe Pay 
Price 



The appeal to history shows us that 
the history of civilization or political 
history depends upon certain well de- 
veloped trends. These trends would 
seem to point out tliat the evolution 
of races has made necessary accom- 
panymg adaptations of governmental 
forms. These political ciianges have 
been accompanied by periodic geo- 
graphical adjustments. This environ- 
mental regulation of laccs constitutes 
the "raison d'etre" o[ the facts of the 
world's political history. Particularly 
is this phenomenon evidenced in con- 
tinental Europe, where the proximity 
of races has fully manifested the im- 
mutability of oporaton of this prin- 
ciple. 

From the fall of the .'static civiliza- 
tion of Old Rome in 384, Modern 
Europe has been in the making. The 
process of development thru a con- 
nected series of luodifications has 



ment of 1815 have paved the way for 
the third readjustment which is in the 
process of making. 

History has a certain resemblance 
to wine in that it must age before it 
is good. That is why it is extremely 
hazardous to put great faith in con- 
temporary histoiy and that i.s why this 
generation cannot know' the principle 
which guides the evolution. But re- 
gardless of the principle, Europe Is 
taking ones tep in advance. Likewise 
regardless of this principle. United 
States has taken a hand in the game. 
Here we part company with prece- 
dent. Hitherto Europe has pacified its 
own contentious family. This time we 
enjoy the unenviable position of the 
outsider who attempts to heal the 
family breach. 

Whether or not the close of this con- 
flict will usher in the political triumph

MRS. J. I. KNEPSHIELD 
Mrs. J. I. Knepshield died in the 
sanitarium at Mercer Monday, March 
25, 1918, at 10:30 a.m. Mrs. Knep- 
shield has been in failing health for 
several years. Two years ago she was was 



'taken to the Mercer Sanitarium whcr""- 
ishe spent several months and was 
'quite improved in health when she re 
turned. Lately Mrs. Knepshield be- 
icame seriously ill and two weeks ago 
was taken again to the Sanitarium. 
This time she was pronounced incura- 
ble. 

Mrs. Knepshield is burvived by her 
widower and two step-children, Laur-^ 
M., S. U. C. of M. '12, at home, and 



centuries. Altho such development is 
.t^radual and would show on a graph a 
continuous inrreasine rtirve. history is 
unable to represent it as such, hence 
the historical account of the evolution 
of Europe up to the present time is a 
series of geographical readjustments 
which might be represented by a num- 
ber of steps upword. 

As long as given system of political 
science and its accompanying philoso- 
phical interpretation held sway, com- 
parative quiet reigned, but when poli- 
tical unrest developed then the logical 
outcome Ras been war. General re- 
sorts to arms resulted in fieographical 
readjustments always the treaties of 
peace have been transcribed and sign- 
ed with pens dipped in the blood of 
the comon people who died that kings 
and emperors might play for big 
stakes in the game of geography. 

Thus are the rules of the game laid 
down. Here is how it has been played. 
Between the fall of Old Rome and the 
fall of New Rome there was one great 
rift In the even lenor of events. That 
the invasion of Europe by the

hordes of Asia. Out of this confusion 
rose Charlemagne vith his Holy 
Roman Empire. At th»» fall of New 
Rome the followers of Islam forced a ' 
new adjustment. This time the de 
votees of the Crescent made Constan- 
tinople the center of the great Euras- 
ian Empire. 

We can emerge from the Middle 
Ages and see the three major read- 
justments of the Modern epoch. The

fact remains that we are going to sit 
in with our Imperial friends of Europe 
in tiiis newest game of .tceoRraphy. \Vc 
seem to be safe from tlie fortunes of 
the game, but if we play we must win 
or lose. 

It has already been pointed out that 
the price of geographical readjustment 
is reckoned in terms of shed blood of 
the common people. If Europe has suf- 
fered in the past in order to gain 
peace, so she must now be crucified 
to gain a peace of greater duration. 
But what of the United States; we 
have chosen to help gain the peace of 
Europe hence we must with Europe 
pay the Price of Peace. We must like- 
wise pass thru that agony. It is tak- 
ing the American people a long time 
to become cognizant of the fact that 
the price of our participation in the 
conflict is not measured in dollars or 
guns or ships but the calculation must 
be made in terms of American man- 
hood consumed. The gloss of our dai- 
ly manner of life mal<e . us loath to put 
aside the veil and view in the full 
measure of its ugliness the mailed 
specter which stalks this war-ridden 
earth with no other business than to 
cut down the best blood of nations. 
Already some American boys have fal- 
len and many more must fall. So 
why not recognize this fact. Why not 
think in ungarnished terms, the plain 
truth tliat the Price must be paid by 
our boys and that America's shrine in 
the future will be France because of 
the white crosses which will make it 
hallowed ground.

THE WORLD AFTER THE WAR 

Wliatever the great world was has 
done, it is certain that in thousands 
of sad and thoughtful homes, thruout 
the globe, some such questions as 
these have been asked and pondered: 
Is human progress a mere illusion? 
If the terrible and futile struggle is 
compatible with civilization, and does 
not reduce so-called progress to a 
mockery and sham, what is the true 
deflinilion of progress? Does a pro- 
gress which renders sucli horrors pos- 
sible, or which fails to prevent or ex- 
clude them, signify or contain any- 
thing worth while? To many it will 
be a distinct surprise to hear that 
there is a preliminary question con- 
cerning the idea of progress. Our own 
-~A <■• un fnmiliar with this idea and 
ished, that few stop 
osarding its past, Its^ 
Oijg.ii una < jpmcnt. To pant or 
Bigh for a TJtopia, to dream of a new 
heaven and earth, to believe that 
human nature can be suddenly modi- 
fied and a social order revolutionized, 
is not necessarily to accept the con- 
ception of progress. 

Slavery was not abolished in the 
United States by any single set of in- 
fluences. Self interest, reason, emo- 
tion, military necessity—all these con- 
spired to bring about the step, and it 
certainb was a prog'cssive step. Al- 



war, a readjustment must take plact' 
in which women shall have as clear a 
right to speak as have men. This, with 
the laws controlling the sale of liquors 
will have an affect upon future genera- 
tions, wliich is almost inconceivable. 
Great Britain has loarmd that intox- 
icating beverages are a detriment to 
the manhaad of her country. If this is 
true in times of war, is it not a lesson 
learned for times of peace, as well? 

Always with the coming of a new na- 
tion two problcnns arise: that of the 
moral effect of a new enlistment, and 
that of the material aid the new belli- 
gerent will bring. The entrance of 
Italy quite transfonued the European 
countries against Germany compara- 
ble utterly with the fijht made against 
Napoleon a century ago. The entrance 
of America coinciding with the trans- 
formation of Russia from a despotism 
to a republic, unmistakably broadens 
the issue of the war to a struggle be- 
tween Autocracy and Demociacy. 
Witli America's entrance the war be- 
comes a fact, a war of liberation, it 
becomes a war of ideas, because the 
greatest of neutrals and the largest of 
the world democracies, by its align- 
ment with the opuonents of Germany 
marks its mature and deliberate ver- 
dict as to the German idea and Ger- 
man purpose in the World. \ 
Materially, the Germans see the 
very foundation of their commercial 
structure being swept away, not alone 
in Europe, but in Asia, Africa and the 
two Americas. The resources of 
America will not be available for the 
reconstruction of Germany when the 
war ends; all the bases of trade, the 
result of long years of patient and in- 
teligent effort, have been destroyea 
and Germany will have to seek her 
market among the nations now at war 
with her when this struggle ends. 
America transforms the war into a 
world strug.gle and with her ideals of 
democracy imperils the tutuie of Ger- 
many, after the war, even more than 
it reduces I lie chances of victory for 
Germany in the war. 

U Monarchy is to survive it must 
speedily undergo the profoundest 
modification. The old state of affairs 
cannot continue. The European dy- 
nastic Fj-stem, based upon the inter- 
marriage of a group of mainly German 
royal families, is dead today; it is 
freshly dead but it is as dead as the 
rule of Incas. It is idle to close our 
eyes to the fact, The revolution in 
Russia, the setting up of a republic m 
China, demonstrating the ripeness of 



ready we notice, as the outgrowth of 

the great war, effects which are con- [the East for free institutions, the entry 

ductive to future, industrial, moral j of the 

and governmental progress. In Great poltics 

Britain there is a new way lo indus- 
trial i^ace, by giving tlie workers an 

increased measure of control over the 

conditions of their woiking life. Work 

shop Councils of the employees have 

been formed for the purpose of taking 

into consideration the principal and 
Belf-government in industry. Almost 
at one stroke this principal of self- 
government has been greatly extend- 
ed. It is all part of a general move 
ment toward the oigaiiized state. The 
employers will form great combines. 
The workers will continue to d(>velope 
the strength of trade unions and will 
exercise that strength in the control 
of their working conditions. In the 
next five years, workers control will 
bo the most discussed item in Eng- 
land's reconstruction. 

The war has served to destroy a 
deep-rooted opinion which no other ar- 
gument had sufficed to remove. Wher- 
ever one turns, WTjmen may be seen 
who, without detriment to the preroga- 
tives of their sex, are performing work 
which before the war would have been 
regarded as falling exclusively within

COLLEGE NOTES 

Growl '21, visited at his home in 
IClysburg over Sunday. 

The concert company made their 
initial appearance at Elysbuig on Sat 
iirday night and were very successful. 

Shoaf '19, accompanied the concert 
1 ompany to Elysburg Saturday. 

Swanger '21, visited with Kimball at 
the latter's home in Elysburg, over 
Sunday. 
> Ritter '21, visited at Elysburg Sun- 
^p-ay 

We are very sorry that we had to 
s'ive up two more of our boys, Kauff 
luan and Bossier, but the country cal- 
led and for her sake we must sacri- 
! CO our best even our all. 

Janson '20, addressed the Dogtown 
( ongregation Sunday evening. 

Cole '20, was visited by his sister 
ind brotherin-law on Thursday even- 
■ng. 

Treaster and Wagner motored to 
McClure on Sunday. 

Miss Dorothy Rearick is visiting at 
UiG home of Miss Gertrude Leffler in 
Mlddleburg. 



The niPHsage whicli the speaker 
brought to us was an exposition con- 
cerning the ethical or moral relation- 
ship, and the pagan relationship 
which exists among mankind. The 
pagan relation.'<hip is ihat which binds 
us together in the Caesar sphere of 
our live s, and our tribute must'be paid 
in those things which belong to Caesar 
The ethical or moral relationship is 
that which unites us as Christians, 
and our tribute must depend upon the 
devotion to God. Just as we must set 
apart a certain portion of our lives to 
thefulflUment of our pagan obliga- 
tions, so must a part of our lives be 
consecrated for some service to God 
with truest sincerity and faith in Him. 
And fhen after an investigation of the 
obligations of the two relationshps is 
made, it can plainly be seen that the 
best and noblest way to pay tribute to 
Caesar is to pay tribute to God. 

It seems that interest is beginning 
to grow dull in our Y. M. C. A. work, 
judging from the small attendance at 
the last two meetings. There are only 
a few more meetings to be held this 
academic year, so let's make them a 
success to the greatest degree. You 
can help with your attendance.

DR. BAUSLIN'S ADDRESS 
(Continued from First Page) 
Character is prime essential to suc- 
cess. Character and shrewdness are 
an almost invincible combination. 
Above all be honest. Then a man 
must put the right estimate on life. 
The old fastioned student came to 
school for the sheepskin but many 
modern students come to school- for 
the pigskin. Brute force is not every- 
thing in life. Many of the great men o!" 
history were weaklings. The prize- 
fighter and the athlete are not making 
the world better. Many a prizefighter 
can remove his shirt without unbol- 
toning the collarband. On the other 
hand intellectual brilliancy and mor- 
ality are greatly to be desired and cul- 
tivated. Everything depends on the 
right estimate of life. Big men fix the 
value of things and are not concerned 
with their pay. Money is no measure 
of the man. So we must work and 
say like Paul "This one thing I do" 
and may we do it so that at the last 
days we may hear the words "Well 
done, thou good and faithful servant." 

At one o'clock Dr. Bauslin addressed 
the male student body on the subject 
"The Great War and the Collegian." 
His address was very inspiring and full 
of pep. He showed the responsibility 
of thes tudent at the present and after 
the war is over. Forceful and elo- 
quent he impressed on thes tudents the 
splendid thoughts that he brought and 
frequently used splendid illustrations 
The students more than enjoyed his 
address. 

He spent the rest of the afternoon 
seeing the stuents, seminarians and 
faculty and everywhere was enthus- 
iastically received and welcomed. He 
praised the hospitality of Susquehanna 
and reassured the student body of his 
interest, heart felt, for S. U. We sin- 
cerely hope that his health may speed- 
ily improve and that he will visit us 
again soon.

all the fellows. do not turn fuit? Th'^ 
guns are now here, so why not make 
it a point to all come out and take

had it only once a week, but since we

probably drill oftener. Do your part

We are very .sorry to announce tlie 
death of Philo and Clio Literary So- 
cieties. They have been failing for a 
long time, and last Friday evening 
made one last effort to survive, but 
failed iu having the majority of nieui- 
be.'.s out. Under the circumstances 
the end was not entirely expected. 
Nevertheless it was quite a shock to 
Susquehanna to lose both Societies at I 
one time. Death was due to a long j 
standing case of "loss of interest." L 
is understood that both societies have 
willed all their worldly goods to S. U. 
o the institution is enriched by several 
pianos, a hundred or more chairs, 
books, several carpets, etc. Tht- halls 
have been left for "the departed 
spiiits" as a reminder of what u.sed to 
be. Funeral services next Friday ev- 
ening — Let's all be present.

"THE PASSING OF A PEOPLE" 

AN ESSAY ON HAWAII 



An Intere^ing Discussion of Country, In- 
habitants, and Customs of Our Island 
, Possession 



In these strenuous days of war and 
of hardshir- tfvr jfre so mhny con- 
tending inniors upon almost cvpiy sub- 
ject tliaL most people have now be- 
come incredulous and are inclined to 
lake all statcnionls with "a grain of 
salt." It is probable because of this 
that little or no attention was given to 
a recent report made by an American 
member of the Hawaiian judiciary, to 
the effect that the race of Polynetiians, 
or pure Havraiians, is rapidly dying 
out and is doomed to extinction. Thi;; 
, report, however, is true — yes, only too 
true! — and it is worthy of cojisiderf)- 
tion. Are these people of so little im- 
portant in the world that the pa>>sing 
cf their race should entirely escape 
our notice ? Let us remember thai 
they are living, breathing human be- 
ings like ourselves, and that, as God's 
people, the./ must have some defmile 
purpose in UU\ What is this pui- 
pose, and to v.hat extent have they 
been allowed to carry it out ? 

It is doubt i ul whether many of the 
citizens* of the Unite'd States really 
know much nbout the Hawaiian 
Island.'-, and knowing little, they care 
even less. To most of them Hawaii is 
no more than a name; or, perhaps, a 



have done had they been given a 
chance and a little encouragement. 
The islands, were annexed to the 
United States just nineteen years ago 
and in these few years their native 
population has decreased from two 
hundred thousand to less than twenty- 
six thousand. Think of it! The fact 
is appalling and is c> riainly worthy 
of our attention. 

Hawaii is a wonderful country, 
where there are altitudes rising from 
palm-fronted coral beeches to snow- 
capped summits fourteen thousand 
feet in the air, and it is .said that one 
can have a city home, a seaside homo 
and a mountain home, all of which 
may be visited by automobile within 
two hours. Never before was so mucji 
climate gathered together in one place I 
on earth. .Situated is it is, remote in i 
the heart of the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii 
has received an immigration of alien 
vegetable, insect, animal and human 
life varied, and giving: rise to inoie 
complicated problems than have con- 
fronted any other land. It is the rapid 
mflux of immigrants, chiofly fror-" 
japan, Asia, and Spain, which has 
caused the great decrease in the num- 
ber of the original Hawaiian race.

LANTHORNS ARRIVE 

The 1919 liaiithorn \vas received 
from the publishers Saturday morning 
and distribution uf (he same began 
Monday. This years hook is consider- 
able above the aveia.ge and is by far 
the best book ever published at Sus- 
quehanna. All (he eiimavings are ex- 
ceptionally good and (he gold liorder 
around the pages adds much lo the ap- 
pearance. Several pages are filled 
with §picy snapshols and the calendar 
and jokes are excellent. The price is 
$;5.00. This is a little more than in 
former years but tht> better quality of 
the book and the war prices accounts 
for the advance in price. This book 
should be in the home of every nhini- 
nus and studen( ir you have not 
ordered do so at once as the extra 
supply is very limited. 



"I reckon It's time to get up an' git; 
But, Lord, I hain't had the meaRles 
ylt!" 



l)rieny: to put the colleges bf'hind this 
tinupually extensive and popular move- 
ment niMl to thereby ohiain a puldic 
c.\pre.s.si6n of the attitude of the col- 
I leges concerning Ihe question. 

The methods proposed are, briefly, 
as follows: 

1, Hold a mass meeting to secure 
student body endorsement of a peti- 
tion to Congressmen and Senators and 
to urge professors and students as in- 
dividuals to petition Congress, 

2, To send out dt'putaiion teams in- 
to nearhy communities to urge the 
s(>nding of similar petitions, 

3, Publicity is to be ^iven the 
campaign by the college papers and 
especially prepared posters. 

Who has earned a lietter right to 
speak to Congress comeniiiig war 
legislation than the colleges of Amer- 
ica? What other institution has sent 
so large a percentage of its eligibles 
to support the colors? What other 
institution had as high a percentage 
of noble clean-cut chaps to send? 
Who goes more cheerlully than they? 
.\nd who will make better soldiers? 

Success in securing war prohibition 
will save for the fellows in France: 

Food, 2,500,000,000 pounds. 

Fuel, 66,000,000 tons. 

Labor, of over 300,000 men. 

Failure in securing war prohibition 
means at home: 

Heatless, wheatless, meatless days. 

Lightless nights. 

War bread. 

Food riofs.

History unearths the past for six 
thousand years. It finds man with a 
barbarous soul, in spite of the gain 
of faculty and invention. Scientists 
and philosophers have proof that the 
world is many thousand years old. 
Then we must think in centuries no 
longer, but in ages, for we realize the 
shortness of tliis historic period. Al- 
tho the advance of man thru this 
small period is marvelously quickened 
these scant six thousand years are 
but sunlit ripples on the flood of un- 
told ages. A little time is adequate 
for reason to reach dominance over 
the age-long heritage of other instincts. 
Obviously the reign of the spirit is not 
yet. God's power Beems not fully to 
control the lust of matter and the 
violence of men, any more than human 
reason quite controls rage and bodily 
desire. There are many "doubting 
Thomases" in the world today. 

We have entered the greatest war 
ever waged, not for territorial posses- 
sions and! nderanities, but for justice, 
tho rights of peace, and the deliver- 
ance of the world from brutal violence. 
The United States has doclorod war 
upon the German Government because 
of the danger that threatened us, be- 
cause of tho horrible sack of Bel- 
gium and the evil designs of Germany 
tipon our own country. We fight for 
the cause of right and truth Ihruout 
the world, to protect our own demo- 
cracy and Insure our future safety, as 
well as that of hU the peoples of the 
world. God grant that the spirit in 
which weh ave entered the war may 
continue to be pure, and that our 
bands may still be clean at the close 
of this great adventure. 

It is true that the present war has 
devastated Europe with horrors that 
can scarcely be put into language. 
Where there were once flourishing 
fields, there are now barren lands; 
where there were once progressive 
cities, there is now only dobria of 
mortar and stone, such woeful des- 
truction as never known 1)efore. 
WTiere there were once happy homes, 
there are now Midowed mothers, 
fatherl(',s.4 children and broken hearted 
lovers. Now, instead of the happy 
song of the maiden, thi- shriek of 
bursting shell and tho booming of 
deadly cannon resound all over the 
land. 

We must not confine our thoughts to 
the horrors of the present but we 
must look to a happier and brighter 
future. Wc must remember that the 
war cannot last always, but that there 
will come a time, God grant that tho 
time is near, when the cannon shall 
cease to epit its fire and death and the 



sword shall be beaten into the plow- 
shear. We clearly see the progress of 
the world of man, and God points to 
a time when tlie finer spirit of God 
and man will have triumphed over the 
blending desires and abominable 
thoughts that have produced their 
natural results in the present war. 
The peak is far and high. Impatient 
peace societies will vainly seek a 
short cut to "Mt. Pisgah." 

We cannot determine the future of 
[hv. world. It does not appear as a 
clear vision, but we can see the future 
dimly, as thru smoked glasses; the 
victory of the Allies, the fall of Prus- 
sian Militarism, democracy ruling the 
world, and nations observing cheer- 
fully the "golden rule," making a 
peaceful world that the Greater would 
be pleased to look upon and be proud 
of as the glorious work of His own 
hand. 

All peace arbitration has utterly 
failed in this war. The Germans have 
had instilled into their blood the de- 
sire and ambition to conquer the world. 
At present, peace could not be secured 
b yarbitration without yielding to the 
plans of the Germans. This would 
mean the defeat of the principles for 
which America stands. There can be 
no safe, lasting, and worthy peace 
made until the downfall of the Hohen- 
zollern rule. This means the Allies 
must win a desicive victory upon the 
field. Without removing this family 
from the throne there will be no dur- 
able peace. In 1814 the cry rang thru 
Europe "enough of Bonaparte"; so, 
today the world looks upon the Hohen- 
zollern dynasty. Napoleon Bonaparte 
was indeed fearful to the world of 
that day, but the world has awakened 
to the truth of his statement at St. 
Helena, when he said, regretfully: "I 
made the mistake of my career when 
I had the opportunity, that I did not 
remove the Hohenzollerns from the 
throne of Prussia. As long as this 
house reigns and until the redcap of 
liberty is erected in Germany there 
will be no peace in Europe." We rea- 
lize the truth of this statement. WTiat 
value could be attached to any pledge 
or guarantee that the Kaiser would 
now give as a condition of 'peace? If 
any nation were ready to make peace 
upon the assurance of the Kaiser that 
in the future he would respect its 
rights, the fate of Belgium, the scorn- 
ful treatment of solemn treaties as 
scraps of paper, would give such a na- 
tion ground to stop and think twice 
before risking its life and honor to a 
German made peace. 

But peace will be established. A 
peace to compensate the world, and 
the plans of peace of America will 
likely be the fundamental principles 
of the future world. The high seas 
shall be free. Belgium, Roumania, 
Serbia, Armenia, and the Balkan 
Slates shall be restored and democra- 
sy shall reign supreme. German ships 
will lie rotting at their docks, manu- 
factories idle, banks swept by a hur- 
ricane Of financial disaster. The peo- 
ple of America, France and Great 
Britain will have a hatred for the 
Germans. This did not exist at the 
beginning of the war, but has arisen 
during the struggle. It will be many 
years before they will, without urgent 
necessity, have business relations 
with the Germans. Tiavel will be 
paralyzed. The German citizens shall 
learn the full truth as to the origin of 
the war, and they will realize, as rea- 
lize they must In due time, that Ger- 
many could have prevented the war 
had its Imperial government had any 
yielding spirit to the almost pathetic 
pleadings of France and Great Britain 
for a peaceful adjustment of the con- 
troversy.

'yvd came to Elijah in his flight and as

tioe, God asked "what doest thou 
1) re Elijah?" At this place Elijah has 
it vision of new possibilities and great- 
II- work. He learn that he is still to 
Hnoint kings and perform God's work 
luaong His chosen people. 

How much we are like Elijah. For 
just as Elijah had talents for doing 
wonderful work for the upbuilding of 
Ood's kingdom, so have we talents 
which we are expected to use for His 
service. And then too, like Elijah. 
we often become tired and are ready 
to quit. However let us not falter 
but let us make a completed work our

COt-LEGES TO ASSIST 
I IN DRY FIGH 

j (Continued from First Page) 
j A long war followed by poverty. 
I It is to be hoped that individual stu- 
dents and professors will not consider 
their duty in this matter discharged 
by simply voting in the mass meeting 
to have the school petition Congress. 
The influence upon your Congressman 
of a personal letter from you, whether 
he knows you or not, is hard to meas- 
ure. One personal letter may have as 
much weight as a petition representing 
the whole student body. Here is an il- 
lustration of what personal letters can 
do. In the 1916 election Herschel L. 
Washington, a 19 year old sophomore 
in Kansas University was elected 
County attorney of Wichita County. 
He refused to leave college to cam- 
paign. How did he win in the election? 
By writing a personal letter to every 
voter in the county. Try it on your 
Congressman and Senators. 

This spring the State I. P. A. Con- 
ventions being held in different parts 
of the nation have been very prompt 
in petitioning Congress for War Pro- 
hibition. This was done very effect- 
ively by the Southern New England 
Convention recently held at Harvard 
University. 

This is the tomorrow you looked for 
yesterday, when you should tell your 
Congressman and Senators at Wash- 
ington that you want War Prohibition. 

Petition your Congressman and Sen- 
ators at Washington for War Prohibi- 
tion. Do it yourself— -don't "leave it 
to George."

The effect of defeat upon a ruined 
and impoverished Germany whose first 
born are slain and the lintels of one 
sixth of whose homes are spla.shed 
with the very lifeblood of the nation, 
will indeed bea terrible retribution. 
The vision is dim, but it shall burst 
forth and shine wth the light of the 
morning sun peeping over the hori- 
zon, making the very universe beam 
with glory as tho the past were to be- 
tray and destroy the national sin, 
coveiuousness. Nations will be dis- 
armed and formed into a league which 
shall protect the small and the weak 
from the power of the greedy and sel- 
fish. This league will give equal 
right to all, special privilege to none. 
Wrong and might will be replaced 
with truth and justice, and all shall 
enjoy righteous liberty, equality and 
justice. Wasted France and Belgium 
will be restored. The world will be 
free, fully dedicated to the pursuits of 
liberty and happiness.

Dear Mother and All: 

It has been a long while since I 
liave written *any letters, so I thought 
I would write this evening. The last 
few weeks have been very interesting. 
We are living in our ambulances. I 
like it line. Th^^y are a regular little 
house on wheels. I have been in the 
city of fashions for several days and 
it i§ some place. I saw several good 
shows v.hile I was th'-rc. Of all tlie

and parlts you see there. You can par.-', 
the time away just watching the peo- 
ple pass. The other day our section 
was out to see the palace of Louis 
XIV. That sure is some place. The 
' \ ^alace itself is 700 yards long and 
there are acres and acres of parks. In 
one big room the walls are covered 
with paintings representing the his- 
tory of France; all her great l)attles 
and men. All the rooms are of mar- 
ble and gilt with paintings and statu- 
ary everywhere. In one room the 
sides are all covered with mirrors and 
the ceiling decorated with beautiful 
paintings and carvings. Th^ flair- 
ways are all marble and hardwood 
floors all thru the palace. It sure is 
beautiful. They have a chapel in the 
palace, all of marble and gilt with 
paintings on the walls and ceilings 
and carvings everywhere. The seats 
are covered with yelvet and the altar 
is overlaid with gold. Just that room 
alone co?t ?,?, million francs (a franc is

IN ROUSING MEETING STUDENTS 
BURN ALL TEXTS. FACULTY 
DROPS STUDY FROM COURSE 



Last Monday the German students 
balked at a sehcduliMl (lernian exam- 
ination. An anti-Giiman demonstra- 
tion was staged in protest of the 
study of German, and the exam. The 
effigy of the Kaiser was brought forth 
by the re])ellious students and burned 
with fitting cercmoties. The German 
text books were collected and served 
as fuel for the anitiilious Monarch's 
funeral pyre. About 10:30 p. am. the 
male students congregated in front of 
Seibert Hall to complete the celebra- 
tion. The coeds soon gathered at 
the windows and on the porch of Sei- 
bera Hall and more German text books 
were thrown out to feed the bonfire. 
During the celebration speeches were 
made in several languages, each 
speech being loudly applauded. 
';Pappy" expressed the pledge of Italy; 
"Bill" Janson the Hebrew scorn; Russ 
Auman, the American determination; 
Hard Guy Shoaf, an appear to buy war 
stamps; Scrooge Allbeck, an appeal 
to buy Liberty Bonds, and A. S. Uyeda, 
the compliments of Japan. Dr. Aikens 
announced if chapel Rnuirday morn- 
ing, that the facuiiy liad decided to 
drop the study of German in the col- 
lege course.

Jersey, Marj land and Delaware at the 
University of Pennsylvania from April 
19 to 21. The conference was enter- 
tained by Penn and nearly all the 
meetings held in her spacious build- 
ings. At the conference were repre- 
sented Princeton, Lehigh, John Hop- 
kins Medical, Haverford, Gettysburg, 
Juniata, Lebanon Valley, Muhlenburg, 
Ursinus, Lafayette, Eastern Maryland, 
and others. The delegates were enter- 
tained individually at the fraternity 
houses. Many delegates arrived early 
and spent the afternoon of the nine- 
leentli seeing the city. The first ses- 
sion was the evening of the nineteenth 
in a room of a medical society in 
Houston Hall. Ormand Milton, presi- 
dent of the Penn organization, opened 
the meeting and presided. Van Ducen 
of Princeton, spoke strongly on the 
idea of maintaining this year more 
than ever before in our colleges an un- 
compromising stand against all unraor- 
ality as well as immornlitv. '^'^■'ith 
the retiring president of John Hopkins, 
Md., made clear the opportunity to 
reach the fellows who would soon be 
giving their lives "over there." Mr. 
Porter, one of the big men in Y. M. 
work, spoke inspiringly on making this 
year the best yet. The session the 
next morning was held in the rooms 
of the International club, a home 
maintained by the Penn Y. M. C. A. 
for the foreign students. The meeting 
was presided over by Mr. Porter and 
was a general conference. Objectives 
and methods to gain these objectives 
were disc\issed. The confeience un- 
animously decided that there is more 
reason for the existence of a Y.M.C.A. 
organization this year than ever be- 
fore. 

In the aflernoon the confereiu (^ was 
held in the same rooms and at this 
time was discussed the advisability 
of holding a conftMence of each Y.M. 
Cabinet before the school term h(>gins. 
It was generally agreed that it was a 
good plan for the cabinet to return to 
school a few days early and prepare 
for the year's work just as tlir foot 
ball team returns weeks early to begin 
training. This meeting was adjourned 
for the Penn-Lehigh base liail and la- 
crosse games. Dinner that evening 
was served in lh(> Univrisily House, a 
building maintained in the setdemenL 
district by the Penn Y, M. C. .\. for 
I'le ben"flt of the pc-oiile there. Here 
the delegates enjoyed a social hour. 
Another man of Y. M, C. A. fame spoke 
on our duly and oi^portunity to the 
underprivileged dealing with such 
work as th( y wi re doing in thae set- 
tlement house. His spe(<ch introduced 
a discussion of deputation work. Rev 
Tamsauer, the secretary of the Student 
Volunteer Movement who visited S. 
U. lately, delivered an illustrated talk 
on the summer conference at North- 
field, June 13 21, at which Hon John

EOPLE 



(Continued from last week.) 
The Hawaiian.'; themselves are a lov- 
able and loving race. Love i.s the 
very essence of their being. To them 
it is "the greatest thing in the world," 
a.s Henry Drummond calls it, .and it 
even shows itself in their language: 
instead of our cold and formal "How 
do you do?" their commonest form of 
greeting is "Ahoha," meaning "love" 
or "1 love you." They love their land, 
their countrymen, and above all they 
love the earth, the .sky and the ocean 
— not for their usefulness but for 
tlieir beauty. They are content with 
Nature as she has .revealed herself to 
man from the beginning of time and 
they never made any changes. Na- 
ture reigned supreme in their land and 
they were dominated by her almost as 
though by a god. By no cultivation 
of the soil, by no huge unsightly ma- 
chinery did they bond hfi- forces, or 
mar her perfect beauty; nor did she 
fail to reward them. Nowhere does 
fruit grow in greater quanlitie.s; no 
where is food more abundant. If these 
people love Nature, surely she re- 
turns their affection for she has free- 
ly lavished her lovliest gofts upon 
them. The Hawaiians eeem to come 
naturally by all the qualities that 
civilization aims to imstill in the in- 
dividual and they po.ssess all the 
gentler vrtues. For generations they 
lived, bapiiy and care-free, in their 
wonderfully beautiful island home and 
poets who have lived there have writ- 
ten as though they had rediscovered 
the .springs of human virtues in the 
people around them. 

Then came the annexation of Ha- 
wiiJ), to the United States and soon the 
industrious fortune hunters poured in- 
to the i.sland.s from Europe, Asia, and 
other parts of the world. Tliey tilled 
the soil and found it wondi'ifuliy pro- 
ductivf'; they formed corporations and 
carried on commerce on a laige scale; 
and they began to grow rich in this 
strange new land, whose inliabilants 
had not taiten advantage of their gold- 
en opportunities. All nature was 
changed and bound as by chains to 
.serve man — now her master— while 
the natives looked on sadly and help- 
lessly. They scarcely realized their 
fatherland, so different was its appear- 
ance—still bea^itiful, but with a kind 
of forced and artificial beauty— so 
hurried and bustling was the business 
oanied on in the great cities which 
spiang up liiie jiiushrooras; so won- 
derful were some of the duties which 
Natu ' v.i ma^'e to perform. After 



the first shock was over, the Hawaiian 
people took hold of and tried to solve, 
intelligently and whole-heartedly, the 
problems confronting them. With 
their charactiristic love and trust they 
r;^ceivcd the strangers with open arms 
and strove to follow in their footsteps, 
but the struggle was too hai'd for them. 
They were incapable of changing their 
lives so rapidly; of keeping up with 
the foreigners in their mad rush for 
efficiency and speed; and of meeting 
the exacting demands of industrial 
process. They could not go back to 
their old habits and manner of living 
for the very atmosphere of their 
islands had been changed. Very rap- 
idly — alarmingly so — they began to 
die out; those who were able to with- 
stand the strong onslaught of the for- 
eign immigrants soon intermarried 
with the various other races, and it 
is evident that the pure Hawaiians are 
doomed to extinction in a very few 
years. They are completely dominated 
and overcome by the stronger and 
more progressive people who have in- 
vaded their land and the Hawaiian 
strain is continually growing thinner 
and thinner and soon will vanish into 
thin air. 

Some people may think that this is 
of little consequence; that the Ha- 
waiians are of little use and may strug- 
gle for speed and efl3ciency — but is 
this all that is worth considering in 
life? Are there not some other things 
quite as valuable — yes, even more so 
than these? What will our 'life be 
worth in the end if there is no time 
for enjoyment in it? The Hawaiians 
are an incurably ingenious people, 
gifted with all the ideal qualities — 
idyllic faith, generosity, credulity, 
courage, and, above all, a love of the 
beautiful — qualities which, if, cutivat- 
ed by all mankind, would be invalu- 
able as a leaven in this tumultuous 
world of ours. These people had no 
selfish and unscrupulous struggles for 
individual power and glory; no con- 
tinual striving for greater than any- 
thing before achieved. Quietly and 
contentdly they lived their peaceful 
lives, enjoying Nature untrammeled 
and undisturbed. It is their very 
idyllic qualities, however, which are 
now causing the downfall of the race, 
and when at last the Hawaiians follow 
the American Indians upon the road 
that has no turning they will leave as 
a memorial only a little wild music 
in the air, and possibly, in some 
minds, an intangible feeling that some- 
thing has been lost which, while it 
was In existence, was not appreciated 
s it should have been. In these mad- 
ly-rushing times of kultur and counter- 
kultur, of speed and efficiency, the 
Hawaiian race Is gradually going to 
its doom, unable to keep pace with the 
galloping world. While we may look 
upon the dying ^ut of this race with 
little or no emotion; while we may 
consider it of no importance, there is 
a lesson in it which we all should 
learn. Let us remember that one ex- 
treme is as bad as the other, that too 
much eagerness for efilciency may be 
even worse than none at all; and let 
us learn to mingle, as a fiavoring, with 
our material world a little of the iedal- 
islic as well, for truly, 

—The Ursinus Weekly.

ALUMNI NOTES 
W. S. Ilafer and wile, who have 
pppnl the last few months at Miami, 
Kloiida, have returned to th<ir home 
in HanisbuvK- Mr. Hafer reijresented 
the Keystone Pecan Co. while in 
Florida. He reports Florida as an 
ideal place to spend the winter. The 
temperalure wa;- about 70-85 degrees 
all winter. There was only need for 
flre about two weeks. 



Y. M. C. A. APRIL 23, 1918 
The meeting was conducted by Chas. 
Drumin, who after the opening exer- 
( ises introduced the speaker of the 
evening, Mr. Keefer, of Sunbury. His 
address to the boys was a gem and 
certainly very profitable to all those 
wlie heard it. "^^ 

'J'o stumble about in the darkness 
of .sin is the fate of many of us until 
we have found the light that leads to 
a righteous and a Christian life, an ''■ 
rmtil we learn that Christ has said 'I 
am the light of the -world : he that f o'- 
loweth me shall not walk in darknesf. 
Imt shall have the light of life." ^nd 
then having found the Christian way 
of livins, we must have a heart en- 
ihusod for service to Him who has 
saved us from darkness. Now the 
Question arises of how we who have 
just been saved from the depth of sin 
can be of any service in the upbuild- 
ing of God's kingdpm. As an answer 
we have only to look to those Bibical 
characters who were men favored by 
God and chosen by Him for some 
work. Solomon prayed and received 
wisdom, Moses prayed and received 
guidance, Gideon and Joshua prayed 
and were the successful leaders of 



I God's chosen people, Christ prayed and 
was never forsaken. These men and 
many others received through prayer 
the qualities needed to make them of 
service to God, and this same oppor- 
tunity lies before us all. It may hap- 
pen that in order to be of true serv- 
ice, we must make sacrifices; but let 
us not forget that self denial for the 
cause of Christ is one of the noblert 
aims of life. Christ himself says, "If 
any man will come after me, let him 
deny himself and take up his cross and 
follow me." 

Thus it stands. The light of Christ 
leads us from the darkness of sin into 
a Christian life, a Christian lite leads 
us into a life of service, and a life of 
service requires a prayerful life and u 
life of self denial.

SOLDIER'S LETTER 

( Continued from Pago 1 ) 
by the royalty. The largest and most 
elaborate one weighed 7 tons and cost 
two hundred thousand dollars. It was 
only used twice, so that makes it one 
hundred thousad a ride. Pretty ex- 
pensive, but those kings didn't care 
for expense. I don't know how many 
million dollars that place cost. 

The grounds around the palace are 
beautiful. All full of lakes and groves 
and statues. You can walk for miles 
and not go outside the gates. Lakes 
and fountains and groves of trees are 
all laid in certain designs. We saw 
a little peasant's village, not really a 
peasants village, but built like one, 
where the king and ladies went and 
lived like peasants (You know how 
I hey would live like peasants for a 
vacation. It sure was interesting and 
i wouldn't have missed It for anything. 
It is 'getting to seem more like war 
right along. We have experienced two 
air raids so far. The fujiny thing 
about it is, that I never got awaks 
during the last one which was the 
worst. In the morning the fellows 
(old me about it and at first I wouldn't 
Ijelieve them. 

The next time you send a box you 
might send some tobacco and cigar- 
ettes along. We aren't near any Y. 
M, C. A. now and they are pretty hard 
to get. You can hardly get any 
French tobacco and when you do it is 
awful tasting stuff. The Frenchmen 
nearly pester the life out of you for 
tobacco and cigarettes. Write often 
for It goes good to get letters frona 
home. I am feeling fine and like it 
all right here. Must close naw ond go 
i bed. 

Lovingly, 

BURNS. • 



Y. M. v. A. ECHOES 

( Continued from rage One) 

R. Mott will preside. The views of 
Northfield were beautiful and the talk 
spirited. The morning meeting on 
Sunday, the twenty-first, was held in 
the Tabernacle Presbyterian church. 
At this meeting Bible study groups 
were discussed. 

The afternoon session in the Interna- 
tional club house concluded the con- 
ference. The financial side of the Y. 
M. C. A. was discussed then. The en- 
tire conference was inspiring and help- 
ful. Rev. Harry, the Lutheran Student 
pastor at Penn, attended all the ses- 
sions and met with the Lutheran dele- 
gates on Sunday evening for a short 
conference concerning applying the 
suggestions of the conference to the 
Lutheran Colleges. Susquehanna's 
representatives received their share of 
the enthusiasm and pep of the confer- 
once, became acquainted with repre- 
sentatives of other schools and in gen- 
eral enjoyed themselves. They will 
now be able to push with new and in- 
telligent vigor *the work of the Y. M. 
C. A. at S. U. for the comink year. 



More things are wrought by prayer 
Than this world dreams of. Where 

fore, let thy voice 
Rise like a fountain for me night and 

day. 
For what are men better than eheep 

or goats. 
That nourish a blind life within the 

brain, 
If, knowing God, they lift not hands of 

prayer, 
Both for themselves and those who call 

them friends? 
For so, the whole round earth Is every 

way 
Bound by gold chains about the feet 

of God.— Lord Tennyson.

TS MAKE MERRYIiR PROIITION A COMMENCEMENT WEEK 



AT SATUR^iJiniCNICS 

SHIKELLIMY SOUGHT BY SOPHS 
AND JUNIORS— MAHANOY THE 
MECCA OF FRESH. AND SENIORS 



The recesses of Old Shikellimy 
were again disturbed last Saturday 
when a crowd o." students picniced 
there. The Soyliomore and Junior 
classes accompanied by several oihor 
students tool< a day off and went to 
arouse the old chief from his slum- 
bers. Under the chaperonage of 
Prof, and Mis. lirungartthe jolly crew- 
left the campus about 9:30 for the 
historic hill. 

About 12:00 o'clock Prof. Keener 
arrived and Iher the fun started. Be- 
fore he was llTere five minutes all the 
other fellows were jealous of him be- 
cause he was swiping all their girls. 
Then the call for dinner was sounded 
and all this was foigotten in the haste 
to get at the victuals. Soon the merr • 
bunch were crowded around the laden 
table trying to .satisfy (heir ravenous 
appetites. 

After the meal, Director Keener and 
his troupe put on a very tragic Movie. 
Papenfus, Reinhold, Schoch and 
Ulrich, Long, and Janson were' the 
leads while several others took minor 
parts. After a court tinal Ulrich was 
sentenced to be thrown over the cliff 
and the sentence was about to be ex- 
ecuted when the person he was sup- 
posed to have murdered turned up 
alive. 

After a-r>-hort t.ni« Keei^er :eft and 
then the scene changed. The party 
scattered and explored the varioufi 
nooks and crannies which mar the 
rugged face of the old chief. 

About six o'clock they all assem- 
bled again for supper. After a de- 
lightful meal they staried home tirod 
but happy. 



PRESENTJCESSIiyj PBOGfiAlijOUNCED

DURING PERIOD OF WAR. A I PROGRAM ISSUED BY FACULTY

The Freshman and Senior classes

How many box-cars will it take to 
transport 13,500,00 tons of freight? 

How many lighting men will be Iwpt 
away from the colors to produce the 
crops of 75,000 farmers? 

How many women will it take to do

How many war gardens will it take

How m.nr.y Garfield dsys will it, take

Cig <iuPstions— crucial and world 
wide in meaning are constantly arising 
in these dizzy time.s of war. Kot one- 
not even our expert ofiBcials at '-\'aHh- 
ington — can always feel certain that 
their answers and solutions are the 
most correct possible. Of a few things, 
however, all can be certain. For ex- 
ample should it be discovered that 
there is in America an institution 
which consumes each year the above 
named amount of war necessities and 
gives in return worse than nothing, 
then even the most timid need have no 
hesitancy in declaring that thai insti- 
tution should be refused the right to 
operate— at least for the period of the 
war. The liquor traffic is guilty of 
that and more. For what more effec- 
tive an ally in America could the 
Kaiser ask? 

In the name of patriotism that is 
practical and for the sake of noble lads 
far away who are laying everything 
upon the altar of Democracy, some 
effort, to swat the Kaiser's best ally 
"over here," must be made— not by a 
hazy indefinite "somebody else," but 
by you yourself, each American as an' 
individual.

PRINCESS CHRYSANTHEMUM WAS 
A GREAT SUCCESS. GIVEN TWICE

THE DEBTS OF THE WARRING 
NATIONS 

The London Economist for February 
places the total gross debt of Great 
Britain at 5,678,600,000 pounds ($27.- 
636,000,000). 

The French minister of Finance in 
presenting the budget for 1918 psti- 
mated the public debt of France on 
December 31, 1918, at 115,166,058,000 
francs (122,227,000,000). 

The public debt of Italy at the pnd 
of 1917 is estimated at about :',5,fl00.- 
000,000 lire ($6,676,000,000). 

The debts of the Contra! Powers arc 
estimated as ioilows: C< rniany, $25,- 
408,000,000; Austria, $13,314,000,011(1; 
and Hungary, $5,704,000,000. 

Our own pul)lic debt is now around 
$8,000,000,00n, but more than half of 
this amount lia.'i been loant-d to our 
Allii's and will be leiiaid us. It is es- 
timated that of the total net expendi- 
tures of the iiiiud .Slates for fiscal 
year of 1918, exclusive of our advances 
to our Allies, more tlian one-half will 
be defrayed by taxation. 



Delightful! The best ever witness- 
ed! Such were the expressions heard 
after the orreretta last Tuesday and 
Wednesday evenings from many ph'as- 
ed patrons. The operetta .staged bj 
the voice department of the Conserva- 
tory of music was delightful in the ex- 
treme, a great success. Never in the 
histoiy of the department was there 
any production equal to Princess 
Chrysanthemum. All thru fi'om i- 
ginning to end ii was a most pk ' 
performance. 

The .story is a vfry pretty on-^. A 
great fete is being held in honor of 
the coming of age of Princess Chry..- 
anthemum. Miss Marion Charles. She 
is loved by Prince So-Tru, Selin D. 
Ulrich, and returned his affections; 
but he has a rival in the person of 
Prince So-Sli, Samuel Koinman, who 
seeks the aid of Saucer-Eyes, the Wiz- 
zard Cat, William Decker, who carries 
off the princess to the cave of Inky 
Night, leaving the Eni.ieror, Prof. N. 
N. Keener and Prince So-Tru dis- 
tracted at her disappearance. The 
Princess, imprisoned in the cave of 
Inky Night, with tlie aid of a magic 
ring summons the Fairy Moonbeam, 
Miss Jennie Botdorf, who is about to 
help her when she drops the ring and 
cannot iind it. Fairy Moonbeam dl- 
appears at the loss of the ring and the 



unhappy Princess is left lo bewail her 
fate. Prince So-Tru manages to ob- 
tain entrance to the cave and find.s the 
ring, which at once causes Fairy 
Moonbeam to return and aid him. At 
this moment the Emperor arrives with 
hsi atli.idants and takes Soucer-Eye.«i 
Prisoner. Threatened with torture he 
confesses the complicity of Prince So- 
Sli wliini the Kraperor orders to in- 
*nnr execution. Thi«! is frustrated by 
apr"'aranrT. of Princess ciu^san- 
thenn.i npanied by Fairy Moon- 

f»*^^'- I ! uiperor paidons feaucer- 

Eye.s and So-SIi at the Princess's re- 
quest and gives her hand in marriage 
to So-Tru and brings everything to a 
happy conclusion. 

Top-not, the Court Chamberlain, U. 
H. Middleswortb, sang a very pretty 
solo as did the Princess; So-Tru; 
Tulip, Miss McCool; Saucer-Eyes' 
Fairy Moonbeam; So-Sli, and Chu- 
Chin-Chow, R. F. Auman. 

Tulip and So-Tru had a beautiful 
Cherry Blos.som Dance. 

The operetta was complete with 
beautiful costumes and wa.s a credit 
to the department which gave it. rMs. 
Hoyt-Aycr, instructor \n voice in the 
conservatory instructed the chorusea 
and deserved great commendation for

THE BASIC REASON 

Someone ha ihe love of 

self is th'' ' ' .1 human ac- 

t; n (tiai , (lysis every 

action of man may be and is trace- 
al))e to uian'h iiihevenl instinct of sel- 
fishness. In the broad sen.se of the 
term, selfi.sbncss is bolli beneficial and 
detrimental. The only possible was of 
emasuring the results of man's love of 
self is to determine whether or not 
the results of his actions are beneficial 
or detrimental to others. 

It has been said that the fundamen- 
tal basis of charity is selfishness — that 
we help the poor and needy not so 
much because we would alleviate their 
suffering — but because we are selfish 
about our own frame of mind and that 
helping these unfortunates brings 
with it a feeling of annoyance. Be 
that as it may. the results of the ac- 
tions are more important, and no one 
will deny or contend that man should 
refrain from helping— simply beoause 
he is selfish about his feelings. 

Then there is a selfishness which is 
narrow and perverted. The selfish- 
ness which is based on the doctrine 
that one's own comfort, advantages, 
and principles .'^hould be attained in 
disregard, or at the expense of the 
comfort, advantages, and principles of 
others, a telfi.'ihness which* believes 
and teaches that the welfare of the 
"I" is the supreme law; a selfishness 
which is based on power and money; 
a selfishness which does not hesitate 
to caluminate, plot, and spread dis- 
sension in ordor <'•-' ' lay be of ad- 

. ^hness which 
: u •■ nant of bar- 
•vtiiCh disregards 
uii laws of God and man. 

Todfiy there is bring carried on the 
l»igge.st battle cif selfishness the worlO 
has ever seen, it is a battle between 
a democrat if selfishness based on the 
principles ot life, liberty, and the pu''- 
sult of happiness; and an autocratic 
Belfishness based on "might makes 
right'', a selfi.-hnc.ss bas<d on despot- 
ism and the suppression of the rights 
of others, a selfishness which would 
deny Christ and Cluislianity in order 
to attain Us purpose. The one is up- 
held by the selfishness for power by 
an autocratic niler who drives and 
compels his subjects to fight for his 
own gain and benefit. The other is a 
voluntary support given by a selfish- 
ne.ss which Americans have for the 
principle.'* of right and wrong, for the 
principles of human liberty, for their 
homes, for their economic rights, and 
for their country. 

The Allies are carrying on this war 
berause they arc selfish. They are 



selfish of the democratic principles of 
government; they arc selfish of their 
economic rights and privileges; they 
arc sellisli for Ih- voirare of fheii' 
homes and countiy. The same is 
true of those v, bo support the work ol 
the Liberty ho;u\, ]Ud Cross, Y. M. C, 
A., ScildiiTs and Sailors Welfare fund 
and all measures which will help win 
the war. The Susquehanna men wlio 
are in the cantonments are not there 
because they love warfare— but they 
are selfish of American ideals, rights, 
and principles. The Susquehanna men 
who are now on foreign battlefields 
did not cross the waters because they 
thought that war is romantic or sport 
— but because of this selfishness fo;' 
the Stars and Stiipes. American men 
do not leave their wives, children, and 
promising careers because they are 
militaristic — but because their selfish 
love for what is ri,ght and just com- 
pels them to do so when an autocratic 
selfishness would trample under foot 
all that we possess. 

All men are selfish. Their actions 
are based either on democratic or 
autocratic principles of selfishnesp. 
You and I must take a selfish attitude 
towards "making the world safe for 
democracy." Our selfishness is either 
broad erou:,h fo see that our prosper- J 
ity, privileges, and ideals depend upon 
our winning the war; or our selfish- 
ness is the narrow autocratic type 
which would "Let George do it," which 
does not observe meatless and wheat 
less days, and which is so painfully 
narrow that we cannot see that on the 
result of the war depends our ultimate 
happiness and prosperity. It \s a nar- 
row minded selfishness which causes 
a person to think that by not giving 
financial aid to the war measrue? 
that he has prifiled — when the resuU 
of such actions on th'.> part of ail 
would result in the payment of inden-- 
nities almost incalculable. It is a 
pitiable ingnorance which causes an 
able bodied young man to seek ex- 
emption, and to think that he has gain- 
ed an advantage — when such action 
may result in subjection to conditions 
which w^ould be unbearable to an 
American citizen. Upon the actions 
of each man, woman, and child will 
depend the result of this war. Our 
ultimate prosperity and happiness will 
depend upon our selfish support of 
American principles and ideals. 



S. U. MILITARY COMPANY 
The Susquehanna Military Company 
took part in the Liberty Loan parade 
last Friday evening. On the march 
they executed several diflQcult mili- 
tary maneuvers and after the parade 
a brief exhibition drill was held. The 
boys, under the command of Capt 
Weaver, have become quite expert in 
their movements and are a credit to 
the school. 



(Coiitinued from First Page) 
her success. She is a master of her 
profession as was shown in the re- 
sults in this operetta. Professoi 
Keener instructed the cast on the 
stage and as usual had a great suc- 
c(>ss. He is one of the best men in 
his line in the country and has never 
once failed in a production. He is 
head of the department of Expression 
in the l^niversity. 

Mrs, Ayer and Professor Keener 
were greatly assisted l>y Miss Jess 
McCool who was untiring in her ef- 
lorts to make tl\e operetta a success 
especially in the dances. Several oth- 
er students as well as several friends 
also assisted in makin.g the whole af- 
fair a grand success. 

This operetta was Ihoroly enjoyed 
and it is hoped that there will be sev- 
eral held next year.

rule in Her Honor 



Y. M. C. A. NOTES 

The meeting was ably conducted by 
Ellis Lecrone, who introduced the 
speaker, Mr. Dewitt, of Sunbury. His 
topic being The Call of Abraham. The 
study of mankind is a very interesting 
study. For two thousand years 
Plutarchs lives have gripped the hearts 
of men until the present day. The 
most interesting autobiographies are 
those Washington,, Franklin, Lincoln, 
•1 ivcix oi th >ir type. Many men 
'■iarti'd In the ■ life for God and man 
ic response ' ., 'all which they heard 
...lu lived up to. Moses heard God's 
call and became the leader of the 
Israelites; Paul on his way to Damas- 
cus; Luther seeing the wrongs of his 
day; Lincoln witnessing the slaves 
.'^old, heeded God's call and delivered 
them. Thus we see many great ca- 
reers have begun with a distinct call. 

The call of Abraham the greatest 
and most resorceful man of his day 
may be divided as follows: From 
t: To what: For what. 
From what: From Ur of the Clial- 
idees up to Haran not because it was 
r or Haran, but because God called 
im from the land of wickedness and 
Idolatry to become the father of a new 
race. He told him about the land but 
Hdn' tell him where it was. He lived 
a tents among heathen in order to do 
lod's service and establish His King- 
dom. 

To what: We are called to be a bless- 
ing to the world as Abraham was cal- 
d. To do good by leading exem- 
plary lives, and to carry sunshine to 
weary hearts. As Abraham was cal- 
I' d to be a great leader; so are we cal- 
( d if we but heed the call to become 
caders of the mighty forces and agon- 
ies to suppress wickendess and idol- 
try. 

For what: "And 1 will make thee a 
!reat nation." The bl«sslng was not 
irlmarily for Abraham but for all 



Iknow and deserve to know that edu- 
cated citizens are ready to stand with 
them in anything that will make the 
country stronger to do its duty at this 
critical hour. Therefore hundreds of 
thousands of individual Americans are 
making a titanic effort by means of 
ptutioi'i letters and telegrams to give 
Congress this assurance. 

All over the nation college students 
and professors at the suggestion of the 
Intercollegiate Prohibition Association 
are getting into this big patriotic 
movement. 

You Can Do This: Write a personal 
letter to each of your Senators and to 
your Congressman. Make it brief and 
pointed. He will want to know chiefly 
that you are a college student; that 
you want him to favor the bill for War 
Prohibition when it comes up in Con- 
gress, and a few sensible reasons why. 

Such a letter from you will have 
more influence than you think. Re- 
cently a Congressman said to a repre- 
sentative of the I. P. A., "Men in Con- 
gress pay more attention to one per- 
sonal letter regarding a legislative is- 
sue than to a petition with 250 names 
o nit." Just to the degree that it is 
more difficult to get a person to write 
a letter than to sign a petition, just to 
that degree does the letter have more 
weight in Washington. 

You've talked about patriotism and 
like "Bobby make believe," imagined 
yourself dropping a bomb on old Bill's 
head but have you actually none any- 
thing to help lick the Huns? Have 
you? Well then here is your chance. 
Isn't Is about time to "put up or shut 
up?"

During the reconstruction period 
which is to follow the war, the home as 
a unit must play a big part. It can not 
play the part it should with drink con- 
tinuing its corrupt work as in the past. 
The women of the colleges and the 
home must work for prohibition in 
order to promulgate World Demo- 
cracy by helping to rid the world of 
that influence which, is much as any 
other, la tending to make real World 
Democracy an impossiblley. — Mildred 
I. Leven, Macalestev College. 



Just this week I heard Harry Lauder 
say that right now Is the time to cut 
out every luxury— eveiy solitary 
thing which does not directly aid in 
winning this war. Harry Lauder Is 
right. In the category of "cut-outs" 
should come first and foremost, liquor.
